RTS trailer wiring and Aux fuel cell questionGood Day! I picked up a 2010 Black RTS

Good Day!

I picked up a 2010 Black RTS yesterday. Had the hitch and factory wiring done at the dealership. I plan on pulling my trailer--I did not buy the Can Am one. I did have to order a trailer wiring pigtail so I can plug into the bike. It is a very unique connector!

Question:

Does anybody have the trailer wiring pinout figured out yet? I can not find the information anywhere--even the dealer and their Master service manual did not have the pinout!!


Also--the fuel mileage for the first 100 miles has been as I was afraid--well under 25mpg. I expect it to get better--but realize that it will not go above 30 under the best of conditions. I plan on adding some sort of auxiliary fuel cell to the bike.

I own RPW Motorcycle Accessories (home of Marsee products and Helen Twowheels Products). We sell quite a few Automobile Racing Fuel cells to car racers thru RPW as well as all fittings/plumbing, fuel pumps etc. As I look into a fuel cell for the RTS I would appreciate knowing :

A.) has anybody done a fuel system for the RT yet?

B.) how many of you would be interested in a RT 'kit' if we end up putting one together? I know I can have custom fuel cells made--the cost will go down if there is more than one!

I do not know how fast I will tackle the aux fuel cell project--I look forward to hearing from Forum members.

If you bought the trailer tongue harness to get the matching connector, as I did, there should be a tag on the harness that gives the pin number for the rectangular connector, and the function. From there you can pick out the wire colors for your adapter.
 
thanks

All:

Thanks for the info on the trailer wiring.

The $100 harness is on order and they said they should have it within a few days. Looks like I will be able to tackle the wiring by next weekend.

Aux Fuel Cell

Depending on the cost, and what the final version looks like, I wold be interested in an aux. fuel cell.

It would be great if you could mount it inside the body cavity somewhere.
Please keep us posted on what you come up with.
