    Just did a big writeup on my blog. Can't copy/paste everything, but a few visual tidbits:

    Yeah, I know, that panel is kind of kludgey. Now that everything's working, I'll fab up something nice. It was a work in progress...

    All wired off the OEM foglight connector. The harness setup on the 2015s is different but may still be useful for somebody who wants to roll their own.

    A voltmeter? No ammeter? How many watts you using?

    No idea, and don't really care. The voltmeter is hardly necessary on a bike like this one, but I had it so I put it in. It's potentially somewhat more useful than the idiot light that the bike already has.
