[QUOTE="RJAMT, post: 1352913, member: 87440"] An SAE connector doesn't have excessive voltage drop but if it uses poor quality wiring inside that can. As for ergonomics, you don't specify which side of the bike the cable is on but coming from the battery I'm guessing the right side. That could be a pain if you get on/off the bike on the left like most folks. Can you run it under the tank to the left (assuming it isn't already there)? I happen to have a coax style (easier to connect/disconnect for me) for my heated jacket and have it poking out under the left side of the seat. I'm running it from the fuse block under the pillion. I have occasionally tried to walk away with it connected (embarrassing) but it would be even worse dragging over the tank or tangling on a bag. [/QUOTE]
