Default 12v power for charging.

I installed a fused 12v power plug with an SAE end to charge my phone and GoPro. It's powered by plugging it into my battery tender pigtail as needed. The 12v receptacle mount had to be modified slightly and was then attached using the front tank bolt on the left side with the wiring run under the tank along the wiring harness. Both the plug ends tuck nicely under the front of the seat. I used a black receptacle so it would blend into the frame and a dual port USB adapter for the charging cords.

Let us know if it drains the battery (on the bike) and how long it takes to charge your phone. Most riders, I know, just carry a battery pack. (known as "power banks" "Power cells" "External power cell" etc.)
