Left saddle bag USB cable after CSC conversion

[Leaky Waders]

It is my understanding that a 2018+ GL1800 comes with a USB cable in the left saddlebag. What happens to that cable when the bike is converted to a CSC trike?

I don't know about them coming with one because mine was triked when I bought it but I do have one in the tour pak maybe it is moved there.

Only one I have, is in the small cubby, right above the gas tank filler cubby.

That is unless they put one in one of rear compartments, that I haven't seen yet.

I have one in the cubby as well. I was wondering if they simply re-routed it there or in fact there was a second one on the back end of the trike that I had not found.

Perhaps Papa can chime in since he converts them.

No, that is too easy. (Giggle)

CSC has been extremely helpful whenever I have called them. I have more respect for them than to take up their time on something that I thought this forum could answer.

I forgot that a small percentage of forum members were richards.

2021 and newer Goldwings come with a USB cable in the saddle bag. When we install the trike kit we reroute the cable to the inside of the top trunk (tourbox).

There is already a hole and rubber grommet there for this purpose (for air bag bikes).

The USB cable can be added to older models. If this is done a hole has to be drilled in the top trunk in the same location and a grommet added.

Paul, my shop keeps me really busy every day and most nights, so as much as I'd love to, it is not possible for me to read and respond to posts here every day.

Will is always a great source for the right information and will always make time to answer or call you back, so you are showing no disrespect in calling him, that is what he gets paid to do.

Understood

Only one USB cable comes with the 2018 Honda GoldWing Tour. If your bike is equipped with an air bag, that usb cable is mounted in the trunk. For all other 2018 Honda GoldWing Tour motorcycles, the USB is mounted in the front cubby hole.

Having said this, I did mount an extra USB cable in the left saddle bag to power my ipod. When I had my CSC Conversion this past summer, both USB cables are now mounted in the trunk.
