I have an 09 Ultra Classic and I was changing the oil today and see this connector. It's on the back of the horizontal cross piece of the engine cradle frame just in front and a little above the oil filter. Had the bike in the shop a while ago. This is the first oil change since then. Anyone know what it's for? I think it's missing a boot over it?
Yup, you're right. I followed the O2 sensor wire and the end was down where I couldn't see it. Pulled it up and it wasn't plugged into anything either.
I'm going to the dealer tomorrow and give them a piece of my mind. As if that will do any good. But at least I'll feel better.
