Can anyone tell me if the monster has a USB charging port? I'm looking to purchase a quadlock phone mount with ball adapter and would like wireless charging.
I’m told there’s a switched live feed under the front of the tank, lhs if I recall. There certainly is on the S model. It’s a small white connector from memory
None on my 2016 1200R - I bought a 12v USB adaptor (£12 Amazon) and got dealer to wire it into switched live from ignition (under the tank). The adaptor has the connections and importantly is 5v not 12v. Just got the wireless Quadlock but not been out on bike to test yet.

You'll need all three pieces of which the most important is the Tecmate Optimate Cable O-47, Adapter, Ducati Port to SAE Plug https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HHPBF46/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Not to be sarcastic but I have a USB charger in my car right in front of me. However, that's all irrelevant as this is a M1200R thread.
Here is the connector you need to tap into the under tank switched live. https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/HM02-SEALED Comes with both parts, you just need to wire up the smaller piece and that connects under the tank.
Finally sorted with the USB charger and phone mount. Works great and is very stable. The eagle eyed of you will notice that i have a wireless mount but I plugged the USB-C lead directly into my phone.....it had been a long day!!
I have tried a few ram ball base pieces to attempt a flush-mounted solution. The best was this one: http://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-B-272U It fits right side up and upside down where the latter will position your unit 1" both forward and lower. Your preference may be determined by the size of your device.
