VFR Electrical Farkles

The above picture shows the layout of the electrical circuitry beneath the VFR's seat. All of these items are velcroed in place. The power relay is a Federal Mogul brand 30 amp relay (part# DF005) that I bought from O'Reilly's Auto Parts in Houston. Switched power to it is supplied by splicing into the license plate light wires with the main power lead coming directly to the relay from the battery (via a fused lead). The relay in turn provides power to a six slot fuse block which was purchased from Advanced Auto Parts in College Station, Tx. (Cooper Bussman brand, "ATC Fuse Panel, 6 Circuits, 30 Amps per Circuit", Catalog No. BP/15600-06-20). Since so few good ground points were on the bike, I hooked up a terminal block to the main frame grounding point. The terminal block and strip of metal that connects all of the terminals was purchased from Radio Shack.

Picture of the left side of the bike "sans tupperware" showing the routing of the wires (including the main lead from the V-1 Power Adapter) around the frame. Positive leads were placed inside plastic web tubing as added protection where the wires went between the engine and frame.
