Electronics » Alternate power terminal on 2020 R1250RS

Hi -

I freely admit, I know almost know jack about wiring on bikes. That said, I am hooking up a couple accessories to my bike. First time I used the battery terminals for fused connections. But Im wondering if I can use the "red" terminal on outside to the right of the battery carrier for powering accessories. It would be way easier to connect to it.

I would appreciate any insight on this.

Thank you.

Except that they will be live at all times, even when the bike is switched off. If it is small stuff that you want to connect then far better to link into existing power socket wiring just above the batter in the side panel, that will switch off a short while after the ignition is switched off.

Cool - THANK YOU Wessie!!!

PDM60 is your friend too:

Denali are jumping on the bandwagon too I see.

£170 to attach a power cable is madness.

Look at Fuzeblocks.com, still not cheap but have used these on previous bikes and well worth it in terms of simplicity and organising accessories. Can be wired direct or via ignition / relay.

Just recently installed the Fuzeblock FZ1 on my brothers ZX14. Easy install (wire routing took the most time) and relatively small. Allowed him to run heated grips and jacket, as well as some auxiliary lighting without making a mess of the battery terminals. Here’s a pic with the cover off
