What do you plan to feed from that socket? And where do you plan to mount the socket?

I use a 5 amp on mine. Not sure its right but hasn't been a problem with running satnav or phone. Or an air pump.
Maybe a 3 would be better but 5 was just handy.

im gonna run my sat nav and hide it under the half fairing

Fitted a marine socket on top of the fairing inner where it is protected from the worst of the weather in line fuse and straight off the battery
