Fuse panel placement

[Flamewinger]

I have an FZ1 compact fuse panel mounted just under the headlight under a black panel. (See picture) if a fuse blows I've got to practically take the whole bike apart to get to that panel in order to replace a fuse. I'm wondering if there's any better place to put this panel?


Thanks

To get at it I have to remove black panel under headlight.

Fuse box

Did you check if there is enough space under the seat?

The reason I placed it under the black panel is because the battery connections are right there. As the battery is right below there.

Depends..!

there are several spots depending on how much work you want to do re-routing the wires and how accessible you want it to be. Also consider what fuses and how often you need to get to them.....:thumbup:

space for fuse panel

I am new at the Spyder and where the voids are under the tupperware, but I believe there is enough clearance under the left side of the seat for a six fuse panel, as well as for a + and a - distribution panel and the relays will go on the right side under the seat. I still dont know where to put the two Gerbing permanent controllers. I plan on putting all the electric farkles completely separate from the CANBUS system, some switched and some unswitched, but all fused. I plan on spending the next two days with an old Spyder hand who is planning on removing lots of his tupperware and hopefully I will come away enlightened.

Although I have a GS, I have the aftermarket fuse block located under the chanel, which is just under the Y panel in front of the seat. It's easy to get to.
