Default Help identifying cable

Does anyone know what this cable is and what it does on a 2017 FXDF 103 Fat bob? End pictured is located on the left side (if you’re looking at the bike from the front) rear.

Looks like ABS, does it go to a "ring" around the axle?

yes it does, sorry I couldn’t get a better picture due to the angles. I’m a noob to this, thanks for your help!

If it runs to a ring "sensor" on the rear axle it is an ABS sensor.There will be one like it on front also.
