Default 660 Zumo wiring harness route

Which way have you ran your wiring to the battery? Any suggestions? Thanks

The first time I zip tied it to the big harness running along the left side under the tank. Next time I had the bike apart I decided to re-route it along the right side, tucked up under the air intake. I like that path better.

My connection ends at the fuse box, btw. Not a big fan of multiple wires to the battery terminals.

Did you install your own fusebox? I share your dislike but currently (!! ~ sorry) I have the GPS and the cockpit cover leads separately attached to the battery terminals. I would have liked a tidier setup.

Why not splice on a repair plug and use the factory switched plug for the Navigator IV. It is located just behind the oil cooler on more recent GS's.
