Hi All,
Hoping someone will know if there is a spare power feed plug somewhere on the R9T urban GS as looking to connect sat nav or possibly additonal LED lights.
Thanks

There's a dedicated GPS link on the left side just under the front of the tank took for a covered plug. For a general 12v feed you could probably piggy back off the existing socket.

Thanks. May seem a daft question, but could I run the LED spots off that GPS socket or the above piggy back or would they not cope with it ?

I wouldn't think so, the gauge of wire is quite small and it will probably overload the CamBus and show up a fault. The main power socket is linked to the ignition so I would go for that or relayed from the battery.
