Multiple accessory wiring.

I bought an newer TDM for cheap recently eventually I am going to build a bike taking the best part from my 97k mile 02 bike and Rebuilt to the new 60k 07 bike.

I have collected a number of powered accessories over the years and the wiring is a bit of a rats nest.

I have...

GPS
Heated Grips
Handguard lights
Stebel horn on a relay
12v socket

And the new bike has Spotlights I will keep.

I was looking for a tidy way to install it all and found this.

Seems ideal but a bit dear, anyone know anything better/cheaper?

I have a couple of accessories on mine and am planning to add an auxiliary fusebox. Just an ignition-controlled relay with power direct from the battery feeding a simple multi-fuse block, something like this.

Any circuits that need inline switching get one (eg I have an inline switch for my mirror-mounted DRLs in case, for whatever reason, I want to have the ignition on but the DRLs off).

If like me you're not really into auto-electrics, there's a guy on the UK V-Strom forum who makes up pre-wired up auxillary fuseboxes (looks like using the same unit which stinkwheel posted). I bought one myself about a year ago (about £25 I think?); it was dead easy to fit and works fine. Obviously this item was bespoke for V-Stroms, ie with the correct connectors etc; don't know if it would be different on your bike.

Nippy Normans is usually a bit dear but usually decent quality gear.
Look on UKGSER. Lots of modding there.

Pretty sure I wrote and pictured a whole 'how to' on here years ago.

I don't know if this is of any interest: https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Wiring_Kits/Fuseboxes/PC-8/pc-8.html
I bought an R/R wiring kit from them and it was excellent quality. Sent from Japan but arrives quickly and postage was reasonable.
