Not sure about the K3, but the K4 has a spare connection from the fuse box, I used that.

If you're interested in doing the 1/5th turn throttle mod, I suggest doing this at the same time. You'll have to butcher the original slider to get the grips on otherwise - however that isn't difficult to do.

just bought some off ebay £29-99, plus £4 p+p. should be here tomorrow.

Is that so ? I didn't know there was a spare connection - under the seat?

I've got mine wired to the battery and I just know I will be forgetting to turn them off one day soon....:!:

i had a look at the owners manual last night to see if k3 got the spare fuse. it referred to spare fuses, but unsure if that spare replacement fuse itself or spare bits to connect to (that's the technical description btw). i'm going to have to take a look at the weekend and report back unless anyone out there can shed some light??

Al, the spare connections on the fuese box (under the pilion seat on the K4).

I could show you how I've got it connected at Soho, then you'll know what to look for. The fuse box isn't in the same place on the K3, but I imagine the connections are the same.

cheers Jordan - I keep meaning to come along but was waiting for the lighter / drier evenings as I've got an awful sense of direction and don't fancy getting cold & lost in the dark (pathetic I know!). I'll take a look - cheers for the info.
