Ducati Multistrada 1200 MTS1200 GPS / Sat Nav (SatNav) Info

Ducati Multistrada 1200 – GPS / Sat Nav systems, installations and mounting solutions

**WARNING** – the onboard GPS power connector supplies 12 volts (12V) and therefore is not suitable for direct connection to GPS units that require a 5 volt (5V) power supply without modification. Typically 5V systems e.g. ‘TomTom One’ charge/are powered via a USB type socket only but check your manual. 5V SatNav systems will require a 12v to 5v voltage regulator incorporated into the power lead (available from electrical/electronics retailers e.g. Maplins)

I think this may well be another ‘DIY’ installation – I came across the photos by chance on a German forum (here: diva di bologna)
…and note the neat placement of the control unit for the Scottoiler eSystem
