Greets!
Installed Honda's Quartet Harness & 12v Outlet on my ST1300 this afternoon. Took me about two hours. Figuring out the fairings was fun...next time should go more smoothly. Had visions of making scratches and marks all over the paint, lol, managed to avoid any damage.
Lets see, for tools I needed a philips head screw driver, 5mm allen wrench, 3mm allen wrench (for the push in clips, perfect size for the button), and a boxend wrench (10mm I think). Oh, and somethng to snip off the excess zipties. Next time I will wash the bike *before* taking off the fairings, but I said that everytime after I took off the RT's fairings too, lol.
Somehow, I managed to end up with an extra philips head screw. I checked all the diagrams, and where all the fastners are supposed to be, and near as I can tell they are all on. But I have an extra screw... :hun1: Fairings on tight and all, oh well.
Decided NOT to put the 12v in the right glove box. The instructions showed it being installed near the bottom, and I stuff that glove box pretty good. Don't want to have to deal with the 12v being underneath everything. So I ziptied it to the clutch line right next to the ignition key switch. Nice and handy. May at some point put it somewhere else, easy enough to undo the current mounting spot.
Now I can use my XM Roady2!!! Woot!
I'll put up some finished shots later tonight.
