BMW S1000R quadlock Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

BMW S1000R 2017 Gen 2

Of note I run some MV bar-risers 


1 x Quad Lock Motorcycle USB Charger (QLA-MOT-USB)

1 x Quad Lock Motorcycle Vibration Dampener V2 (QLA-VDM)

1 x Quad Lock Motorcycle Handlebar Mount Pro (QLM-HBR-PRO) 

1 x Quad Lock Case - Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (QLC-GS23U)


short  10cm usb to usb c cable :  https://amzn.eu/d/ebhgMW8

small black zip ties


remove seat (theres just 2 screws on the rear edge
remove the plastic sidepanel on the LHS (3 screws and 1 bolt near to rear of tank)

USB charger is direct wired to the battery (no inline fuse , but apparently has surge protection in the 'head' , of note this wont help if theres a short downstream of the head!) you could fit an inline fuse if you wanted to

NOTE THIS MEANS THERE IS PERMANENT POWER TO THE USB CHARGING HEAD AT ALL TIMES.
So you could discharge the battery if you leave something connected with the bike not running

here you can see I have 4 cables to each terminal of the battery now

  1. Bike
  2. Tracker
  3. charging extension lead to pillion seat (so I can connect a ctek charger over the winter easily)
  4. Quadlock USB charger





usb charger has a useful split  to an SAE plug in the cable, so you can do the cable routing seperate from hooking up to the power (it also means if you already have an SAE plug you could use that for a switchable power)

handlebar mount
size of padding ring used was 28.6mm
route the cable so its suitable going lock to lock steering wise









I did think about but didnt get in the end


wireless charging head ( was unsure if it was going to be the full fast charge amps)
