The energy savings is quite substantial at Idle
This is with LED head light ,LED front park light and LED tail light
Dash lights are incandescent
I could easily run more heated gear on top of my vest and grips
14.4 volts I think that is a record  ;D

Aha, so That's what you did with the clutch cable :-)

Yea, nah, can't get that voltage at idle. Where is the temple/altar/we-are-not-worthy smiley?

Good job  8) 8) 8)

Sure isn't pretty  :P
After installing the RT bars. The cable had to make a hard bend to get under the dash pad
 So I drilled a hole thru the dash to straighten it out and  extend the life of the cable
