DC Outlets

[Whitlow]

I was told that I should have 2 outlets on my 03 RSV I see the one in the inner fairing where is the second one? Or is there another one?

Thanks

DC outlet...I think there is only one one like you said on the inner faring. The elecrical drawings shows 2 so called DC outlets. I think some bikes have another one that is supposed to be another DC wires or a connector plug or something somewhere around the left saddle bag/rear fender/driver seat area. I have never seen it on my 07 RSV and let me tell you I have had it apart installing LEDs. I have heard it supplies power for the optional CD player. I do not have a CD player so I cannot tell you.

 

I have never seen it on my bike... I have installed a one of those DC outlets inside my front fairing to run my XM.

 

Maybe the older bikes have one but my 07 does not that I can find.

Yep I remember seeing that now...mighty pnewny aux DC power...definitely would not carry much load. I was looking for some thing to do some good. But 5 amps is not very much anyway. I set a new 6 circuit fuse block under the seat and run all my extra stuff off it.

Really?

I never had much dealing with heated clothing but I would think it could pull some serious wattage. I guess I just assumed that from some of the post talking about upgrading the stators and seems that was mostly when they start using heated clothes.

I had a set a battery socks one time...does that count? Not sure of the wattage but they would smoke a set a D cell batteries pretty quick.

 

Good to know if I ever had the need for any.

I used the outlet under the seat to power the GPS, since it is already switched with the ignition it's convenient.
