Moderator DirtyDT Posted April 12, 2011 Moderator Share Posted April 12, 2011 A good addition 2 wheels. If it is not a twist in one they can shake loose co a little insulation tape stops this. I have an optimate lead perminanty connected to the battery on the SV so I can plug it the charger or plug in one of the other accessories. Check out optimate TM on evilbay. I also have a Ram mount holder for my tomtom but havent got around to getting the brackets yet. They are handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ttaskmaster Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I have my TomTom wired in, but I did put a Hella plug on as well. I cheated and just bought a car 12v extension cord from Halfords (or maybe Maplins. I don't recall), cut the other end off and wired it in via a fuse. I have about 2-3m of coiled cable that reaches my mini-tank bag and can power the matress inflator for the Mrs, charge stuff up or even run my CB radio! Very cool add-on and very cheap!

Hey Dirty, it is one of the push in types so i guess out with the insulation tape,,,cheers for the tip. Ive no holder for my sat-nav so am planning to just put it into the seethrough bit of my tank bag for now,,,the holder will have to wait ! The sat-nav is a big enough one for a car/cage so it might look huge if i put it on my bars somewhere,,,,well have to wait and see. OG,,, you have a holder for your car sat-nav,,,,,,,,,,, how do you find yours ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted April 13, 2011 Moderator Share Posted April 13, 2011 I found my car satnav in the tank holder was too low and hurt a few of my chins so I got a bike mount. It may be worth checking out the mounts (I got mine off evilbbay used) LINKY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted April 13, 2011 Moderator Share Posted April 13, 2011 yeah Pat I'm happy with mine, handlebar mounted with a knuckle joint, it is plastic but seems strong enough, never had any issues anyway. Waterproof too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
