newbs need the forum
Finally took the plunge and installed two power outlets, one on each side of the bike. I wanted to purchase some inexpensive marine outlets, and finished the whole project for about 15 dollars including an inline fuse. I know most forum members don't mind spending a little extra for premium outlets, but I wanted to try a low budget install. Anyway, I wanted to find a place to put them where they wouldn't interfere with anything inside the cowl. It was a challenge finding a spot on my Gen 1, but this location works pretty well with about 1/4" clearance all around (inside the cowl). The vertical section of the panel should help with moisture issues as well. Though this location requires that the outlets be removed prior to taking the panel off, it's a 30 second process to remove the outlets. One thing I learned: it sure is crowded under those four black panels.
