Default Is this supposed to be plugged in?

Still having issues getting my Street Bob started, under the seat I noticed this plug not plugged in. Unsure if it's intended for an accessory I don't have or if it's actually unplugged.

Could be a red herring to my problem but figure i'd ask...

I can't be 100% sure, but that looks like it might be the plug for the alarm siren.


Hopefully someone else can confirm.

Another possibility is the plug for the active exhaust valve - which isn't used on US bikes (apart from maybe CA????)

Can't quite remember what colour the one on my bike was when I took that crap off - but I think it was yellow and I tucked it up under the seat and out of the way.

It's not the connector to the actuator valve for the active exhaust, that looks like this: Image pilfered from F0xtr0t... I'm going to agree with SASK_RT, looks like the alarm/siren connector.

It's 100% the siren connector.

I see Mexico, what's going on? Are we talking about American iron?
