    Default accessory issues?

    My wife is considering adding some lighting accessories on her F3S. Are there any issues with adding lighting accessories on the spyder? I only have motorcycle experience and found that some of the lighting I added on my old bike did cause issues with the battery.

    It all has to do with current draw. The new LED lighting accessories are such a low current draw there is usually not a problem tapping into existing lighting circuits. For a heavier draw, like HID, you would want to have them on a separate circuit.
