this is what came in the box.



there is nothing there to wire it to the battery, i wish there were. they charge $20 for the wiring harness which i bought w/ my car. and i also got a wiring harness 3-4yrs ago when i ordered/installed a set from xenondepot.com ($3-400 back then)

ddms wiring harness



"This harness is a fused relay isolation harness capable of supplying 40A at 12vdc."

That's the exact same kit I have. Nope, it didn't come with the relay.

pulled over that, smoked up the fuse quick.

I wouldn't recommend this to car owners or people with bikes made for lots of electrical add ons. I do it for sportbikes/ e start dirt/dual sport bikes due to the smaller batteries (but you have a Busa, so you probably have a lot better battery than the race bikes because you are pretty much a sport tourer and they may have put in a decent battery to take some abuse from extra electrical hooked up to it.)

It's also dependent on how long you keep bikes, if you only keep a bike 0-2 years, fuck the battery, thats the next persons problem. If you are going to keep the bike awhile, it's good cheap insurance to keep a healthy battery.
