This is the radar detector on the bike… ill buy a v1 eventually… just not willing to have it stolen, nor do i have the cash to drop on one as of now… this one has worked well until recently. ANYWAY… every bump i hit causes the radar detector to turn off and then on… I assume that its because the contacts in the charge port have worn down. Id like to have to wires soldered in so i can just permanently hardwire this into my bike… i will actually most likely attempt this in the next 20 minutes. Anybody on here willing to fix it when i fail and remove the port from the detector?

thanks
