Help for the mechanically challeneged

[Guest gwh1996]

I will be installing a GPS unit next week on my '05 RSV. I am looking for the Auxiliary DC jack that the owners manual (3-21) says is "at the front". Is this jack located under a cowling somewhere? The manual shows a picture, but not a good one. Another question is do I want to use that jack or just run the GPS from the battery?

 

Thanks.

The jack is located on the left fairing up under and behind the handle bars, kinda hard to see unless you stand on your head, but it is there.. if you go to the battery be sure and use a inline fuse.

Personally, I just use the jack.

 

If you get on your knees on the left side, it's a lot more obvious. There's a black cap covering it, very well hidden. You can't see it while sitting on the bike.

The other "hidden" item in that area is the head light adjuster. Didn't see it listed in the owners manual.
