    Good install! The instructions are nuts. I did the iPod adapter, cigarette lighter, and the auxiliary lights on my Vaquero, all without removing the fairing. The aux. lights are fun - ship in a bottle style. Wish I'd filmed that... it was a few hours of scratching my head and figuring it out :D

    • @GoofyBastard
      @GoofyBastard  2 роки тому +1

      Wow I can’t imagine doing the aux lights without taking the fairing apart. First time I took the fairing off, I thought I was in over my head but it turns out it was such an easy thing to do. I just knew it would be easier to remove the glove box for the plug. Thanks for watching and stay safe

      @@GoofyBastard Dude, I stared at the instructions for several minutes, in their black & white glory, and said NOPE. Looked online, found out about the SIAB technique, but there were no instructions, just "do it without taking the fairing off - remove the cubbies" and off to the races I went!

    Great install video bud. Mine came with one already, but I love seeing what's behind the outer shell of things before I'm ever forced to do it myself. If mine ever dies, I know it's an easy fix now. I only ever use my USB plug to charge my phone (especially if I'm using navigation) and I've got a nice little air pump that I bought just for my last bike. Works great, you can set the pump for whatever psi you'd like and it'll cut off automatically. Small package, and runs off the cigarette plug. Keep that quality content coming.

    • @coastemac
      @coastemac 2 роки тому +3

      Next I might drill a small hole in the back of my right glove box to route my charging cord up the bars to my phone mount. So it's always available, but hidden. Think you just gave me a GREAT idea !!

    • @GoofyBastard
      @GoofyBastard  2 роки тому +2

      You ain’t seen nothing until you pull that fairing apart!! It really is an easy install and such a quick one as well if you ever need to change yours out. I just couldn’t believe that the instructions would tell you to do it the other way. The air pump definitely sounds like something I should maybe throw in the bags for an emergency situation.

    Simple install. Yeah, it seems like everything for Kawasaki, even the Clymer repair manual, is more complicated than it needs to be. Seems like almost everything starts with...first remove the seat, then remove the gas tank, detach all the fuel lines and power cords from tank...etc. I think some new rider looking for proper air pressure in the rear tire would first have to take off the seat, remove the gas tank....Hahahahahaha. Good job.
