Default Power Vision cable on Breakout

Hello there!
I just bought a new license for my power vision and married with my breakout also (it was already married with the sporty 48 of my wife).
I am now wondering if anyboby could give me some hints about routing the power vision cable from ecm plug to handlebar.
Should I remove the tank or there is a simpler way to get this done?

Thanks a lot!
Andrea

Don't remove the tank. Just run the wire below the tank on the throttle side of the bike.

If you want to give yourself a little more room, remove the front and rear tank bolts. This will allow you to raise the tank enough to route the wire without having to totally remove the crossover line.

Yes, no need to remove the tank. I routed it on the left side with a few small black zip ties. On and off in a couple minutes.

I'll try to stick it wit some zip ties as suggested, I am not planning to have the PV on my handlebar forever, just the time to properly autotune my bike and check everything is under control.

The most important thing is to mod her how you like and want her to be. That's just fun! But hide your wallet 'cause it's an endless temptation!
If I can help you somehow just feel free to PM me!
Have fun and ride safe!

Hey Andrea,

We have five bikes at the shop that the Power Vision has been installed on, and none of the tanks have been removed. You can run the wire under the tank in the tunnel and up to the handle bars. Hope this helps you out


Kelsey
