FYI for everyone looking to purchase Givi products through Motostorm.it I emailed Givi requesting assistance with the engine guard issue mentioned above and this was their response: They can't help because I didn't purchase it in the USA. Seems like a weird rule as it's clearly a genuine Givi product and Givi is an Italian company, and I ordered it from Italy On another note, the Givi rear rack (SRA2159) I ordered was engineered beautifully and fit my '22 Tracer perfect as expected

Ordered the Givi gaurds from Motostorm on 08/2/23, shipped 10/3/23, arrived 10/9/23 I've usually had good experiences with Motostorm but this time they showed the Givi guards as in stock ready to ship. This turned out to delay the entire order for a couple months. Not a huge deal until... Had some free time today to install the parts and found the right side engine guard does not align properly - not even close. Following the provided directions, I loosely installed the lower left section of the right side guard, and the top right mounting locations are way off. I had to uninstall it and box it back up. Waiting to hear back from Givi and Motostorm. Has anyone here had first hand experience with the Givi guards on a '22 Tracer? ( Givi TN2159B )

Front signal options ‘22 Tracer 9 GT
slownsteady replied to kingfisher's topic in FJ-09 Tech Questions
Hi did you ever find a solution? My front left signal has been pulled out of place a couple times now while parked A nice after market solution or a different, more reasonably priced OEM part? -
Thanks for your feedback Skip! Appreciate it. I ended up using the entire harness from Clear Water to install the Darla lights. I wanted to try to make the installation as minimalist as possible by wiring the lights directly to the AUX connectors, but as you pointed out the rating for the lights was at the max amperage for those circuits with 2amp fuses. The Clear Water harness included everything needed for the installation. I installed the relay on the right side of the instrument cluster brace, and ran the power terminals back to the battery. The most time consuming parts were self imposed: using heat shrink crimps instead of the supplied PosiLock connectors, fishing the wiring under the gas tank, adding loom protection and heat shrink to the harness, and adding the connector for the left side AUX for the AC/on instead of tapping a headlight wire with a PosiLock. Also making sure the wiring didn't impede turning at full lock was a pain. I opted to not connect the horn and highbeam wires (flash on full bright with horn, or turn to full bright with high beams).

My old 2015 FJ09 on a road trip from San Francisco to Oregon. Pic was taken near Eureka, CA And my new Tracer 9 GT Sold my FJ09, tried a few different bikes (CB1000R, R1200GS, Versys) and came back to the FJ09/Tracer. Great bike.

I have a similar question / issue... Can I use the OEM connector under the left side fairing ('22 Tracer GT) to power ClearWater Darlas? They're rated at a "max" of 2 amps. I figure if I run one light per connector, I should be right at the limit. Can anyone give some more feedback regarding powering AUX lights with these connectors? Thanks in advance
