All opinions and info welcomed
It's pretty much like hooking up a battery tender, the bolt on version. One wire to the positive battery post, the other to the negative or a local ground bolt. If you do have the battery tender pigtail already in place you may want to just pick up an adapter cable and you're done (check your fuse requirement).
If you don't have the tender connection; the pigtail connector is then routed and accessible from your location of choice. Between the front of the tank/seat, from under the seat, or even from the rear side below the seat (there is already a cutout between the shock & frame).
Keep in mind where ever you decide, you will want it conveniently located/accessible while sitting on the bike since you will need to connect and disconnect each time you mount dismount if/when it's actively used.
I have no experience with the self contained rechargeable battery pack units.
