I don't know how the canbus system works on this bikes. I have a few accessories I want to install on the bike it's 2021 fe a fog lights 150w , driving lights 100w and gps carplay monitor.

Is it a direct from the battery and call it a day or it's more complicated than that .
 
From what I’ve read and understand the CANBUS is very sensitive to being messed with so I’d leave well alone unless you really know what you are doing. The alternator can only do so much, I have no idea whether it could support all that extra demand reliably. Hopefully someone will know for you.
