    Morning all!

    Just second guessing myself here. The helpfully named "accessory socket" on the right hand side behind the cylinders - looks like a small cigarette lighter socket. I can use that with an appropriate (LiPo) battery charger/maintainer, right?

    Bike is a 2024 Speed Triple 1200RR

    Thanks

    It doesn’t mention it. Just says what it is - an accessory socket.

    Yes i had this on one of my Bonneville's. I purchased a cigarette type lighter socket with two USB points and a lead for my phone. Believe i found them all on eBay.

    If it is live when the ignition is off then it could well be ok for charging

    Thanks all - I had the correct plug, checked it was live when ignition was off and gave it a go with my NOCO charger (set for LiPo of course).

    No problem - it is indeed a charging point. And apparently it's 5A fused as well so pretty safe.
