Where are yu guys putting your inline fuse / breaker using 4-gauge wire?

Mine is up by my headlight but there is no a lot of room up there would like to get it back by the battery but the breakers are a little large for that/, so just looking for ideas

 

Under the side covers.

And if your fuse from the battery is behind your headlight, you need to move that closer to battery. Having a fuse 5ft away from the battery isn't doing much good.

 

the fuse preferably needs to be no more than 12-18" from the battery. Think of it this way, if there is something that causes that large fuse to blow as designed, you do not want that large run of power wire still energized by the battery, when it's closer to the battery, you only have a foot or so wire still energized as opposed to 5ft (or more in a vehicle)

 

Yes,,,, I know its too far away hence, the Move :-)

I'll look on the throttle side and see how much room there is.

 

LOL, ok good!

There's a bit of good room on both sides. I've seen 2 strategically places on clutch side.

 

Based on the length of 4-ga cable I have going to the battery already, I ordered 2 options :-)


I already have a 60-amp breaker, its a little big,,, but... if I can get it to fit, I will use it

I have one very similar to the stinger, it sits right under the seat just forward of the ECM. Fits there perfectly.

 

Perfect, that will simplify accessibility

 

I would love to see photos of fuse/breaker setups folks have when running multiple wires (especially on older bikes). Right now I am running four pairs of eight gauge and while my setup is reliable I would like to clean it up someday.

 

4 pairs to the battery?

Why not run a single pair of 4awg to a dist block?
