[QUOTE="Last Chance, post: 1174457, member: 3199"] The "glove" box on the FJR is largely useless, except for small objects. The power outlet is only good for low current usage.. I believe it has a 3 amp fuse. Don't try to use it for a tire pump, for example. You can run a USB cable, with appropriate plug, to a location outside the box (your pocket?). Most people add a fuse block located under the seat or other location wired to the battery. They then run electrical back to the front for whatever purpose. (GPS, radar detector. The list is endless.) Many add Powerlet or similar to other locations for specific purposes... Heated clothing, tire pump, battery tender, etc. etc. The FJR is an awesome machine...but not a Gold Wing or BMW.. But then, the cost is MUCH less also... Adding electrical is not the big of a deal and you can have it "your way"! Enjoy. [/QUOTE]
