If it does not have a stock harness, I would ditch the Aquatic and get a decent marine single din radio.
Wire up the yellow to the battery or constant power.
Wire red to ignition or off the headlight/cigarette lighter.
Wire black to a solid ground or battery.
Then just run your speaker wire and get an antenna.

Thanks juice.....
long story but he's not picky and I'm actually selling the aav to him so I can rid of it. I think it's a nice radio and he has no radio so this is better better than nothing for him. I just can't find that plug for the stock hu anywhere. Thought maybe someone here might know where to find it.

check drag specialty or similar catalog, since you are not using any handle bar controls, wire only the power(s) and ground and speaker outputs of Aquatic HU using the Duetch type pins that can be purchased from local dealer
PM me if you have any questions
there should be an antenna under the fairing with the tail end of it tucked behind your battery somewhere

Yoop,
Found a plug from metra.
You sure about the antenna? I didn't really look when I searched for the radio harness. A buddy has a standard and he said he had both the harness and the antenna but I figured the flhtp since no harness there wouldn't be an antenna either. I'll find out sat, have another antenna in hand just in case.
Thanks for the response!
