MP3 player on tank how do I hook up the cable
wise men and women
I need your assistance (again) please.
I want to hook up my mp3 player atthe end of the gas tank just up from the seat I have two sided velcro for this----
do I run the cable under the gas tank or do I hook it up a different way.
It seems as if I hook it up underneath the tank the cable can get hot and could possibly melt (or is this my imagination)
thanks in advance

I would not stick anything to tank.not cool imo.
dout cable would melt under tank.
mount to handle bars or do a search.

RE: MP3 player on tank how do I hook up the cable
I apologize---I have an 07 SG wanted to mount the mp3 on the tank panel--- the handle bar makes more sense---I've been edgy spent 8 days withthe inlaws in Northwest MA with nothing to do--got back home yesterday-went to get my bike out of the shop it was not ready it was there for 8 days, I made the mistake of telling them to take their time because "I'm going on vacation"(I will now resume to seeing the good in everything).

Was not trying to make you inferior, I was trying to find out what you ride in order to give you advice. So maybe if you go back and read your first post from top to bottom, and sense there is nothing in your signature, no one would have any idea what you ride. So don't shot someone for trying to help you.

Congrates on the New SG. As for the IPOD, I would not mount it to the bike. The IPOD does not like the vibrations of the bike, or the bumps in the road. I have gone thru 2 IPODs that both locked up after a few hours on the bike. Use your ITUNES software for the IPOD and burn your music to CD in MP3 format, and use your CD player to listen to the music. I have a CD with 116 songs on it, that I use on my SG. I can control all of the tracks from the radio controls, safer that way.

RE: MP3 player on tank how do I hook up the cable
I agree with Bob, this is exactly what I do. I have a Road Glide and had mounted an MP3 player in one of the top compartments, but after burning a few MP3 CD with a 100 songs or so on it, I found it MUCH easier.
Good luck and hope you get your ride back soon. That would drive me crazy!
