I have my scooter where I want it now, however the next minor mod before I attempt a bbk:

I would like to install/mount a USB charger somewhere on my scooter.

Is there a barebones kit that I can attach to my battery or something?

It would be ok to be DC fired, aka only enabled when the engine is on.

I don't want to go as big as a 12v cigarette lighter adapter, just a minimal USB slot, maybe in the glove box, but I wouldn't be completely against it if you can convince me.

As usual, thanks in advance!

Sorry, should be Satin, not Gloss

Ok, so it's been a bit since I've been able to work on my scoot.

I put the tube line back into the stock airbox (it was zip-tied to the frame after installing the Uni-style filter), and put the smaller inner snorkle back into the stock airbox. When I went for a drive, I got a lot of sputtering, and it was backfiring I think, lots of shaking at WOT.

I brought it home and swapped the MJ for an , and it ran beautifully! Nice, smooth vibrations, getting the high RPM desired, accelerating up to 40/45 mph steadily. Also, there's some nice power, it doesn't slow down when climbing slight grade hills, and actually moves up in speed!

I really like this configuration. It was at night, and after a rain, so I will need to test again today in the middle of the heat. If it does worse, I might try putting the outer snorkle back onto the stock airbox too. I doubt I have to downjet anymore at this point.

Thanks! I really love the matte black look.

The cup holder was a plastic kind from Walmart to hook onto a car's door side or something. I snapped off the hook and used a self-tapping screw into the plastic cover. The cup holder has a space that allows a screwdriver to open the cover, and the battery door. I also used some double-sided foam tape to prevent it from swinging. It works out pretty well!

That was in my garage. ^)

They work great!
