Ebay. Usually less than $10.
Use one from a '90s XJ600 Seca II....or .....check ebay for other bikes fuse pannels...or do like a lot of us have done and solder in 4 bladefuse sockets.

O'Reilly's has them where I am at, found this out after getting one off eBay. Same exact one.
I bought one of these from Amazon after seeing them recommended here:

Turns out I have it still new in package because I had the same ones available here at my work and didn't even know it. Shoot me a PM if you want it. $10 shipped?

There's only one problem with that fuse block. It only has one power in and 6 out. You can't wire your 650 that way. You need a power in from the battery and out to the ignition switch and another power in from the switch out to all the other stuff.

Im a little confused. Why couldn't you just wire an inline fuse for the switch, then to the fuse panel?
Forgive my naivety, but my bike has a maine grade panel just like this one, and it was running fine.

Ryan - that's how I have mine wired. I have a 20A inline from my battery and going to my ignition switch, and then from the switch to the fuse panel. My kill switch to my ignition/coils is run off the fuse panel as well as separate ones for headlight, tail light, etc.

This is how I planed on setting up my build too. Are you guys running relays in line to your head light or tail lights

Great, thanks for that. I was pretty sure that I was able to wire it up like that.
Cheers,
I am by no means a wiring expert by any stretch, but I can't see what would be wrong with it. If I am wrong please feel free to correct me as I'd prefer my bike not to engulf in a ball of flames but as far as I can tell it should be OK. I am not running relays.
