Before you start wondering about magnum1b's spelling skills, bikers don't accessorize, they farkle! Here is a quote for you from the big book of motorcycle knowledge...

"Farkles" are all the little widgets that make a motorcycle personal. They tend to be functional elements (in other words, not just a pretty piece of chrome).

I added a Garmin 010-10587-00 Motorcycle power/audio cable and a RAM mount (http://www.ram-mount.com/) for my Garmin GPSmap 276C. I don't count the adapter for the Battery Tender (that is just good sense :) ).

Happy farkling!

I have probably done it overboard on my Concours, especially for a 20 year old bike, but I made it like I want it to make me more comfortable, add safety (conspicuity and situational awareness) and just make it overall a nice long-distance ride.

Great looking bike!

I know with cars when you starting adding electric accessories, you reach a point where you need to up the amperage of the alternator. Did you have to do that for your additional lights?
