Thank you. Makes me wonder why Triumph didn't just fit a standard 'cigar' lighter socket.
The 'BMW' kind do a much better job at keeping the connection in the more vibratory environment on a motorcycle. Also, they are easier to fit the little weather doors to the female plug which is on the bike so that no water, etc. gets into an electrical connection.

Cheers,
Fred
