Default Iphone 4 and way to keep charged on bike

I thought at one time I saw a post on here about someone able to hook up an accessory to the motorcycle battery, run into saddlebag, and then be able to charge your iphone or ipod. I have the iphone 4 and run with bluetooth on my helmet speakers. Wondering if anyone set up something like this so the iphone stays charged in your bag or somewhere else. Appreciate any info. (current ride is a 2008 rk classic)

I use this connected to the battery tender port, then plug in my charger and throw in the bags. http://www.whitehorsegear.com/powerl...socket-18-inch

This is what I use, from http://www.hardbagger.com/ . It works great and you can use any bluetooth device.

I'm liking the whitehorse gear connection. So I need a pigtail too that comes from battery, the powerlet apparatus, and then I just need the iphone charging connector that goes from it and has a cigarette lighter type end that plugs into this powerlet. Sound right? Thanks for the info.

I'm pretty sure all the 08's came with the battery tender plug installed, it should be hanging down by the battery, visible from the right side of the bike. You're correct, plug the connection into the tender outlet, plug your phone charger into the cigarette lighter socket, plug in your device and throw it in the saddlebag.
