[QUOTE="SR-71, post: 1456106, member: 7105"] [I]I'm struggling to verify whether this can be "hard wired" to the bike for power. On the site it says in the "in the box" comes the motorcycle power cable, which should work for it being wired to power when on the bike, right? [/I] I have my Zumo hard wired to my FJR's battery and it works fine. It's just important to understand that if the bike is parked for a long period (and not on a trickle charger) the bike's battery is constantly keeping the Zumo's battery charged, so if the bike sits for a long period eventually your bike's battery will run down. Of course to eliminate this issue, during long periods of non-use (and no trickle charging) you can always disconnect the Zumo from its mount. [/QUOTE]
