No picture currently, but I go to Radio Shack or Walmart and get one of their auxilary lighter sockets for $7. I couldn't find a great place to put mine on the dash, I may still go for one of the steering stem Powerlet sockets, but for now my outlet is under the seat.

Get a bike specific or marine specific outlet.
This will help with weather etc.
Bike specific is better so you can run your battery tender / Widder etc... through it without modifying the lead.
These mount anywhere, including out of site inside the fairing. Fab your own bracket from sheet aluminum, plastic, or drill into body work.
Enjoy.

would it be bad to drill and tap a small hole in the frame in the radiator areas? to mount powerlet plug.

Shiz,
Sorry to answer a question with a question but would the stearing head one from a VFR fit? It looks like a clean install. Here is a link:
