There is a place on the left side of our bikes where you can put a powerlet outlet. Just take the bracket off, punch out the tab, pit the powerlet in and hook it to the existing wire cable. Easy enough. My guestion is, is there a fuse on that line?

on mine i just put a regular cig lighter there and ran the hot to the battery with a fuse on the wire and ground to the bracket also did the same on stb bike

There is actually a hookup right there dedicated for a powerlet outlet. Now I need ro figure out the best way ro clean the xontacts. A bunch of crud in them. Can not believe they did not have a protective cap on it!

Yeah, its part of the stock wiring harness. According to Service Manual accessory socket is 10 amps.

Guess I am going to have to go a different route then. With all my Gerbing gear I believe I will need 15 amps.

I think Gerbing has a BMW style plug that will'work there and just use their wiring harness.

Yeah, you'll have to wire a separate circuit for heated gear. I used an auxiliary fuse box wired for heated gear, Stebel horn, and heated seat. Much cleaner than running a bunch of wires off the battery.

There is a plug for heated grips already in the loom if you didn't know. Not sure what the amps are for it though.

And I'm having a hard time identifying the make/model of that plug.

You're not trying hard enough!

I did the same. I have two 6 position fuse boxes under the tank. One is switched power and one is always hot.
