Rookie FJR Driver does his first mod.

Well decided to tackle my first mod after I serviced the bike. Since I had the fairing off for coolant flush I figured now was as good as time as any to go exploring the innards of this FJR. For now just decided to add a front accessible power source for my GPS and XM. I had also purchased the engine insulation and put that in while running some future expansion power under the seat for my Gerbing liner.

Here is the power source that I copied from fjrtech.com

Good news was that it actually worked!

Of course being a rookie FJR owner, I seemed to have some leftovers :blink:

Probably from some dark recess that I never should have ventured into anyway!

But all in all I was happy with the final result. Now just need to order another hardwire for my XM so I can swap between the Ultra and the FJR

Excellent job, great documentation.

Please ship me the extra parts, they belong on my bike.

Since one of those bolts has a nylon washer, it must've started out on the painted portion of your fairing... you might want to check to make sure you didn't replace it with a bolt without a washer...

Yea I figured that and went about looking for it but for the life of me I can't figure where these two belong. Hopefully I won't find out the hard way as something blows off while zipping down the road
