I picked up a dual outlet from O'Reilly auto parts mounted it on the left side windshield using brake line clips. Wired it into the headlight bucket using the always on power and a relay tapped into the running lights so its only on when the key is on. Here is some pictures

I was thinking about that but didn't know if there was enough room behind the plastic.

Trosco and jd01: I like that too as I want to keep the outlet out of site when not in use.

Of course the ultimate would be to put one in the fairing but I'm not there yet. :)

Thanks all for the replies and pics. There are certainly many options.

I have one up on the handbars, in front of the risers, and a second one in the right saddlebag.

I would into mounting in the left side cover, on the handlebar or possibly the windshield mounting hardware.
