If you fit one of these and power it from the OEM socket to the right of the fairing, take a bit of care.
The charger stays live, the canbus seeing it as something that has to be powered. I don’t know how much it draws without a phone attached, but it might be enough to flatten the bike’s battery overnight.
It only stays live if the charger is ‘on’ when the ignition is turned off. I had expected it to turn off when the canbus shut down about 30 to 40 after the ignition is turned off. It doesn’t, it stays live.
