Sat Nav Again (sorry!) - 2017 Tiger 800 Xrx

UncleBigBad · Apr 2, 2019

Hi all
I've looked for the answer and see conflicting responses.....and it's not even for me. So I hard wired the sat nav on my shiny new TEX to a switched accessory. My brother has just bought an 800 Tiger (2017) and wants me to wire his for him. Usual question - where is the best place to take a switched live on this bike. I've seen lots of "off the horn" or "off the side lights" but an equal number of "CANBUS so go direct to the battery".

The TEX had a lead under the seat - does the 800 Tiger have the same ??

TIA

try off the horn, it would only take 2 minutes to check. That is unless someone on here says absolutely not
