Default Mysterious Black Flat Plug?

Just got my first Harley (used)! It only took my 35 years and a bunch of jap bikes to get here.

Anyway, it's a 2007 Street Bob. There is a flat black plug that resembles that of a trailer hitch 4 pin wiring plug and it's in front of the battery box attached to a cord. Anyone know what this is? I've seen it on a couple other street bob's as well but no one can tell me. It's not a battery tender plug as those are narrower. He did have Stage 1, Rineharts, and a remap done.

Thanks!

Could be an accessory plug. Trace it back, it should be located under the seat. The other Street Bob's that have this plug, where they at the same dealer or where?
Call the previous owner. Most of the bikes I see at the dealer have the plug and it is for a battery tender or electric clothes.
Here's an example :

Got a picture?? My heated clothing plug is a coaxial plug, but they do make a SAE type plug for heated gear.

Ahha! Took the cap off... The plug has AMP and a 1 below that...hard to see in the fuzzy pic. Look at those connection in the end! Also, it has 5 spots in the plug with the last one plugged by a red something. The guy that owned this didn't do anything special he said, only stock with some pipes, a/c and a remap. What would connect to this thing??
