Is it okay to mount a lot of LEDs on the side plug?

List of parts connected to the side plug
1. Front bottom 12V 72W LED
2. Front Middle 12V 24W LED - 1
3. Front Middle 12V 24W LED - 2
4. Handle guard 12V LED (I don't know the information)
5. Heated Grip 12V 12W~72W
6. SSV Works Plug N' Play 2-Speaker
7. Front & Rear Black Box (CAM)
Most people have LED power plugs on the battery, but I have all 7 plugs connected to the side plugs.
Will there be any problem with the cable even if it runs like this?

Sorry not as well practiced as use to be. Looks fairly thin wire for all that, use an ohms law calculator -fig your amps. & proper wire gauge for said amps (with some spare) suggest fuse each load individually accordingly.

This should help. Calculate each one then compare to the rating on the plug and fuse being used.

No.
The USB port and aux connector are on the same 5A fused circuit. Fuses should be at 125% of current draw, so you should be drawing 4A or 48W at most. Your stereo and heated grips alone are drawing more than that. You can safely replace the 5A fuse with a 10A fuse and draw more current; the wiring is stout enough for that. Best practice is to wire a separate fuse and use a relay for the amount of current that you are drawing.

Wiring issues. Best practice is to determine a location for an accessory fuse block that is powered through an automotive relay so that the power is switched on/off with the key. You will need a 12 VDC supply and ground taken from the battery. This minimizes the number of wires on the battery. You can get an inexpensive 6 circuit accessory fuse block on Amazon or from eBay with integrated ground circuits. Lets you expend the fuse block to more circuits later on. Another plus for this is that if there is an issue with your Ryker, you can disconnect the fuse block from the battery and troubleshoot the Ryker without having to worry about component additions.
Motorcycle wiring circuits are designed with the minimum gauge wire required to do the job from the factory install. We expect these circuits to do more, but you can stress the OEM wiring.

Fuse doubler tap and one of any 12v-5v adapters ...

When I went to the custom company this time, the work was quite uneasy, so I decided to disassemble everything this time. Thank you for good information. It's sad that I won't be able to ride Ryker for a few days.
