plug behind air cleaner
What does the plug behind the air cleaner go to? I am putting on an aftermarket aircleaner and don't know what that is plug is for. It is just stowed on the back of a stock '08 bob air cleaner.

I was told it was for airboxes on Euro models and is sort of like a human appendix here in the US - useless. In any case, you don't need it for anything. My big sucker has a little hole behind it that I just push the clip in. It comes out now and then I just put it back.

The HD stage 1 AC kit provides you with a stick on hook to re-stow it on the back. Its some type of emmissions connection for off-shore models. We don't use it. Diagnostic cable is stowed in the electrical box.

RE: plug behind air cleaner
I dont have a clue what it is Ill take ya'alls word for it, BUT, I was on a short trip one day and the scoot started actin goofy, idled doen to die at stops and all sorts 'o lights comin on the dash. Pulled over to see what up, that unit was riding on the rear jug getting hot as hell, ripped out a plug of the ole ladys hair n tied it up and bike went back to normal, pissed off the ole lady tho, had to buy her a new pr of ridin boots.
