starkruzen Posted October 25, 2009 #1 Posted October 25, 2009 I would like to purchase and install a cigarette lighter on my 2007 RSTD. Any idea where I can purchase one and where can I mount it. Any assistance would be most helpful. Thanks Mark
dr_bar Posted October 25, 2009 #2 Posted October 25, 2009 http://www.motoleather.com/moac--motorcycle-cigarette-lighters.html One you can mount in the fairing somewhere, the other is mounted on your handle bars...
V7Goose Posted October 25, 2009 #4 Posted October 25, 2009 Not absolutely positive about this 'cause there are a few minor differences between the RSTD and RSV, but look at the plastic mud shield next to the fender under the left side of your seat. You will see a round plastic plug that covers a hole that is already the right size for a standard cigarette lighter type power port. Basically, this is the same place your rear shock air valve is, just on the other side of the bike. And being so close to the battery, it is very easy to route a new fused 14 AWG or 12 AWG wire to the new plug with a 20 amp fuse so you can run an electric air compressor or other power hungry device (such as an actual cigarette lighter, if that is what you are wanting, instead of just the power port).

sarges46 Posted October 26, 2009 #5 Posted October 26, 2009 I just bought this for Marilyn's vstar. She needed something that was weather proof and this seemed like the cats meow. http://motorcycle-accessories.cruisercustomizing.com/search?lbc=cruisercustomizing&uid=329395573&ts=custom&w=Motorcycle%20Lighter&af=&isort=score&method=and&view=list&model_id=0&searchtype=Products&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.CruiserCustomizing.com%2Fdetail.cfm%3FCategory_ID%3D53%26manufacturer_ID%3D16%26product_ID%3D26911%26sblid_name%3DKuryakyn_Universal_Handlebar_Electrical_Power_Point_____inch_bars&rk=1&rsc=RPSW1jzhAISvcyvR&p=R Yes it is a little more, but sometimes when you pay peanuts ya get monkeys!

Doe this work as a cig lighter or just a power port
Freebird Posted November 18, 2009 #9 Posted November 18, 2009 The description says: This power point/cigarette lighter will keep them charged. It has what looks like a cigarette lighter element in the picture also but I can't tell for sure.
cb1313 Posted November 18, 2009 #10 Posted November 18, 2009 Autozone sell a cig. lighter that has a flip door when not in use and a weather proof rubber backcover to protect the wires. I have one on my Venture. Cb

Dave77459 Posted November 18, 2009 #12 Posted November 18, 2009 I think when the time comes, I'll install a Powerlet rather than a cigarette plug. They're designed for applications like motorcycles. I'm not ready yet, but it's fun to imagine the uses by browsing the products. The problem is that Powerlet is expensive. Dreaming, however, is not. Dave
starkruzen Posted November 18, 2009 Author #13 Posted November 18, 2009 Thanks for all the info, I did get on off ebay and have installed it and it works great. Thanks mark:Venture:

It has what looks like a cigarette lighter element in the picture also but I can't tell for sure. Yeah, i wasn't sure either. I'm looking for a friend who has a Tour deluxe.. I don't have this problem I've got a Venture:whistling: Autozone sell a cig. lighter that has a flip door when not in use and a weather proof rubber backcover to protect the wires. I have one on my Venture. Cb I believe that one is a Power Outlet and not a Cigarette Lighter. You can still find Zippos at most convience stores. A little bit of Velcro and you're good to go..... :rotf:but on a TD or RSV they don't work as well as they do on a 1st Gen just ask MUFFINMAN.:crackup:
924gtr Posted November 18, 2009 #15 Posted November 18, 2009 I have one from Kuryakyn that clamps to the handlebar. Has a lighter and a weather cover. I think it was about $60.
ronhenry4 Posted November 19, 2009 #16 Posted November 19, 2009 I got one from jpcycles for 39.99 and mounted it on the handle bar of my 2007 RSV
