I think I might have stuck a standard connector plug on to it, because I started to replace all the bullets with that type. Tam would have to check though

Was nice & easy on the gixxer, some muppet had wired in the R&G no. plate light with one of those household screw in type double connector blocks. Just soldered the feed wires and attatched the ign live feed in at the same time.

Might need another gizmo soon bib's, so get making a universal one with just a long ign live feed wire and no connector, then I can just source a bike specific one, when required.

yup muppet is the word. i hate those things with a vengeance as they always end up a green furry mess. they are ok for household wiring but have no place on a bike.

If it's a switched live you are looking for then I have one under the seat that comes from the number plate light. I was using it to power the inforad. Not sure if you are using that or not Tam?
I took the inforad out. It hardly ever got a signal and that flashing green light in my peripheral vision had me trying to cancel the indicators every 5 minutes.

Good point though - that switched live you had it connected to would be the ideal solution for Bib's gizmo.

Yeah I don't know what went wrong with it. It was really handy when it worked

easy to find out. find the rear brake light switch which is connected to your rear brake pedal (usually by a spring) then follow the wiring up till you find a connector. the connector can be black or white once you find the connector then you insert the supplied one with the gizmo. if the bike has a boot above the switch and the wiring goes straight into the loom then you will need to take the power form the front side light connector which is the same. if its not then you will need a bit of jiggery pokery like i mentioned to TamSV.

ooohhh and you need it for such things like heated grips and 12v accessory sockets so they switch off with the ignition saving your battery


I think this is the connector, so looks the same as the pointy.

Gizmo is now Mk4 which is fully universal to fit any motorcycle apart from those that have cambus e.g. newer BMW.

the Gizmo will be fully removable once installed but will leave an indication that there was something there. those that can use the rear brake light switch will still be able to remove leaving no trace that it was ever fitted.

so once you buy a Gizmo it can be transferred to almost any motorcycle on the market.
