What do you guys think of this painless fuse block? comes with its own relay and wires.......Need to start wiring the bike for accessories ... GPS, Radar?, Cell phone ... http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10002_122966_-1
Here's another popular choice to consider. http://www.northeastmarineelectronics.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=2750 Never tried either one, so I can't say which is better.
Painless Wiring makes great stuff, really high quality. I've used their kits to wire at least a dozen LBCs (Little British Cars). :car: The tradeoff is the pain inflicted on your wallet! If all you are after is a 3 circuit block, building your own would cost less than 20 bucks.
I just got done wiring 2 bikes with the Centech AP-1 fuse panel (do a search, I got mine from cyclegadgets.com). I didn't like the Blue Sea as it was to big (might be OK for the VFR but on the naked bikes I had to be very innovative on where to put the stuff so size was a major issue). The Centech is a very compact unit, providing 8 possible connections. It allows very easy connection of the accessory connections (no terminals needed, just strip the wire and put it in the screw down terminals in the panel). You still have to buy the relay, in line fuse, wiring, connectors and such..........and granted it would be easier to buy a kit........but after looking at everything out there, I would probably do the same thing over again. The painless kit is designed for automotive and allows both switched power and "constant on" power.........which I wouldn't think us motorheads want (at least I don't). I want all my accessories to power up with the ignition, and power off when turning the bike off. There was one kit that I was considering, but it didn't have a Ground connection as part of the Fuse panel and required an additional purchase of what they called a "Master Ground Block" http://www.casporttouring.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=17121&Category_Code= Hope this helps.
