The next problem

[vfrtom]

I fitted a Stiebel Magnum, but it doesn't work. If I connect across the battery, all is fine. I propose to fit a relay, but where would be the best point to pick up the main supply. I can take it back to the battery, but would prefer not to
Thanks Tom

Unless you have something like a fuzeblock, I would take it direct to the battery.

and the only real place able to accomodate a fuzeblok is under the seat by the seat catch....Ive tried with mine

I have my fuzeblok up front, by the airbox intake air tube on the right hand side. Works well for me, as all the stuff I wanted to wire in (extra lights, heated clothes) needed to be up that end.

Yep, got to admit that the Trophy had more soul somehow. I bonded with it more I think. Probably because I spent most of my life fixing it, servicing it, or vainly trying to balance the carbs 

GTR is a better bike in almost every single regard though. Only thing I would want to bring over from the Triumph is the ability to leave the panniers and topbox closed but unlocked.

Nice one Martin. and great pics to help with fitment.

I was going to fit my Fuzeblok , but TBH I can't see the point at the moment as I only require feed for the comms, which comes from the rear aux power and the Sat Nav which is sourced from the front

The Fuzeblok is s great peice of kit tho'

Hi Tom,

I fitted a magnum too. And it didn't work to start with either.  I just fitted it and connected it where the stock horn was. However, after a bit of fiddling with the 'tuning screw' it blasts in a most satisfying manner!

If yours is making a kind of clanging noise rather than sounding, then, fiddle with the bolt that sticks out the middle a bit. Just do quarter turns until you get a note.

Also, beware that you'll get a slightly different result with the engine running so once you get a sound, fire up the motor and tune it properly.

Wear earplugs!

Ciao
