Question #1: I'd like to install a GPS and/or a radar detector on my bike. The GPS came with a cigarette lighter hook-up and if looks as if all the detectors have the same thing, unless they're wireless or set up for direct wiring.
I'd prefer to use the accessory hook-up on the left side of my '07 R3. The question is, is there an adapter that will fit the R3's cord for eith one or two accessories.
Question #2: What kind of a plug is that on the accessory hook-up? I'm very weak on my classification talents, so please forgive me for not being more specific. Any info would be appreciated.
 
Jimmyjet, when I hooked mine up to the Rocket for the July 07 Nashville trip I direct wired a 12V plug directly to the battery and hid it behind the side panel where the Triumph 12v adapter would go. I then mounted a ram mount on my left side handlebars and ran the Garmin (550c) accessory plug wire underneath the gas tank and plugged it into that adapter behind the side panel.

On the new tourer you can actually order a GPS wiring plug assembly for use on it, not sure what kind of hook up end is on it.

Hope this helps,
Dennis
