I have some fog lights to install and plan on installing heated grips so I figured a voltmeter is a good idea to keep an eye on the battery condition. I found the meter on eBay it's waterproof and available in red, blue or green readout green seemed like the logical choice and it was only $11.00. I did not want to drill any plastics so after messing with some scrap aluminum this is what I came up with and it's mounting location. It's plugged into the battery charger cord right now I plan on getting a fuse block when the lights and grips get installed so then I will connect it to a switched source.
shocking skills man
Neat job!
Neat, nice size too... Best add-on for a steamer :nod - peace of mind.
Very tidy, looks the part :thumbsup
Very neat :thumbsup
Very cool bracket design - could do double duty as an egg dipper when you dye your eggs at Easter (minus the meter obviously).

It's wise to not wonder what makes Tiger owners tick...
Old Post I know, don't want to start another topic.
Did this also (can't get a better pic), but wanted to add that I tagged into the clock wiring, and by using the 'Instrument Illumination' wire (Bl =>R/Bl) and Bk=>Bk/Y as 'earth', it only comes on when the instruments light up.
Good reminder to switch the lights on!

Thought this subject could do with another airing. :sign13
Like water cooled bikes without a temperature gauge, an engine without a kick start, it's critical to know you have plenty of stored battery power so we don't "fry" that sprag clutch & starter. :thumbsup
