Now, let the farkling begin.

Just finished installing the stebel nautilus horn.

Note the front blinkers are not lit up in the pic above.

Next farkle will turn them into running lights.

Congrats!.. Hoping for many miles on that one.
 
Congratulations Joe!

I am starting on the farkles for my K1600GT this week.
 
Sure hope you have it put away in the garage with a cover on it to keep it warm!! Enjoy the new ride.
 
Congrats Joe. A new ride is always great just sometimes the way you get it, not so great! Hope to see ya sometime soon?

I've put the lit roundels, altrider engine bars, and stebel horn on so far. I started the CDBane driving light mod but the left one works and the right one doesn't. I suppose the crash did the right one in for good. I'll have to order a new set.

If you do any electrical and want to use waterproof connectors, I've got the high $ crimpers I'll loan you.

I used the 8 pin connector from my PDM-60 and a couple of the 2-pin connectors for accessories I installed.


8-pin (plug and receptacle) p/n 38178 and p/n 38179

Required pins are:

16-18 gauge wire (pin and socket) p/n 38194 and p/n 38195
14-16 guage wire (pin and socket) p/n 38196 and p/n 38197

8 pin connector - http://www.waytekwire.com/item/38178/8-PIN-CONNECTOR-PLUG-AT/

8 pin recepticle - http://www.waytekwire.com/item/38179/8-PIN-RECEPTACLE-CONNECTOR-AT/


The crimpers that I have (p/n 613) will crimp only the pin styles as shown in the part numbers above.


Since all of the slots weren't used, I plugged a couple.

Thanks Joe. I don't think I shall need the high $ connectors yet for anything I am going to install

So far I have mounted the SPOT 3 and Adaptiv Radar Detector on the handlebars but still have to wire up the Adaptiv.

This weekend I hope to take the tupperware off once to mount:

Protection:
- AltRider Engine Guard
- C4 Rear Tip over Guards
Electrical and Lights
- PDM60
- Clearwater CanOpener 4 and Ericka 6,000 lumens driving lights :D
- Skene Design P3 LED Brake and Rear Turn Signals
- Whelen LIN3 high intensity LED Brake light
- Stebel Horn
- Warm & Safe Heated Gear Cable and Socket

I will install a connection block with the PDM60 and will otherwise use Posilock for the connections.

Matching Orange Top Box :D will be installed by the dealer (along with a new rear tire!) on Wednesday.
Cannot decide between the CDBane driving light or the Skene Design 150 Controller. I'll see how the P3 works and decide.
