The relay is there for two reasons: #1. The OEM setup is switched via the ignition switch. I simply replicated that by using the sensor wire to trip the relay. #2. The relay provides a handy point for adding a switched terminal for other accessories, without having to cut into the harness(and thus introduce more potential problems. This circuit will be fine with low demand devices, or will work well to trigger another relay for something like Heated Grips/Suits or a Video Camera that have higher draws, and should be on a dedicated line to the Battery. Thanks........ On my bike (which is a 2004 ABS with 14K) I'm not experiencing any problems yet, except for high voltage. My radar detector gives me voltage read out and at times it's over 16.5V. "The OEM setup is switched via the ignition switch. I simply replicated that by using the sensor wire to trip the relay" Why? Does this wire simply turn the RR on and off? If this black wire was "hot" all the time, would it be impossible to shut the bike off? I've already installed a swiched aux fuse block, right in the general area of the RR. Can I simply hook up the black wire here? This fuse box turns on and off with the ignition, triggered from my tail light. This weekend I'm doing the fuse replacement, RR rewire and the Blue connector grounds..........Fun!

Yes it snows, but the car that parks over the lift never goes out in the snow......In fact, it's in storage all winter.......Thanks

My wife was VERY concerned when I started to dig a 6' X 3' hole in the garage floor........ :lol: Thanks for the kind comments................ "Man Cave".................I like that!

I have a garage that needs to be occupied by a car and a motorcycle lift. The lift is too tall for the car to simply drive over, so this weekend I embarked on a little project....... Read about it here: http://public.fotki.com/Rbertalotto/moto_p...cycle-lift-ins/
