I would remove the crash pad which houses the ignition switch and find the wire which is live when the ignition is on (light green on my 1991 K100LT). Run a wire back under the tank to the area under the seat and use that to switch a relay. The power for the relay would best be from a wire with an inline fuse direct from the + side of the battery. Use heavy guage wire to take a large current with minimal voltage loss. You will then have an ignition-controlled source to power your GPS via the sockets, and you will also have a source of power for heated clothing, heated grips, etc. that you may wish to fit later.
