Are you only looking at HD parts? That's going to severely limit your choices!

That would depend on what you wanted.
A direct battery connection would have whichever port you go with powered all the time. Or you could tap into a line that's only powered when the ignition is on. Or, if you have an accessory switch you could go through that and only switch it on when you want.
I've got an 07 ultra so I'm not all that familiar with the RK but I'm sure there are several ways to get to any of those options. I know several guys have already posted suggestions on where to pick up power.
