Autocom installation question 100GS PD

[Thunder]

OK I want to install an autocom unit on the bike so I can make use of my PMR radio when out with Ms Cheeks and was wondering where is the best place to make a connection for a switched live feed?

Any suggestions or solutions gratefully accepted.

I took the live feed from the back of the auxilliary socket from under the seat. Works a treat!

Can't find an auxiiary socket under the seat.

The auxiliary socket on yours is on the bottom of the battery cage that's why. St.Eptoe will need to tell you where he took my power from for the Autocom, memory should be OK he only did it a month ago.

Found it!

Perfect, easy to access and I now know there is an auxiliary socket, bonus

Just want to check, is the auxiliary socket switched or permanently live?

Permanent - you don't want to fit it there

Why not take it from the rear indicator which runs down the underside of the top rail of the rear subframe? That's where mine used to be fed from but its now taken from somewhere up under the tank (I think!).

Ooops! Right will look for an alternative including your suggestion

Take it from the horn fuse Roger. Switched off when the ignition is off.

Splice into the feed to the brake light switch. Power on/off with ignition and the kill switch.
