Absolutely not. Would love to get a part number/description of what you're running.

All I need is a USB port to power either the phone or the GPS. That would be much much cleaner!

This is what I'm running https://www.3brpowersports.com/products.php with p/n 150-0060-01 at middle of page. Has a waterproof cap if not using the port.

I have a Garmin for my GPS and use this, middle of page also, https://www.3brpowersports.com/produ...d_Band_USB.php. I don't need the traffic alerts, so this is perfect for the power.

This would connect directly to the battery terminals correct?

That looks sharp and clean. What set up did you go with?

Phone should stay pretty dry if I'm riding in the rain.

So how did you mount the HD power port to the handlebars? The one I was looking at like this doesn't seem to have any handlebar mounting option.

You don't by chance know the part number do you? I looked and can't seem to find that one. The only one that shows up for my 2005 RK is the one in my picture.
