This is the one I ordered, the connectors are correct, hoping it works even though the wire colors different.

I got the wire adapter, the basic colors matched up with some minor differences. My wires are all solid colors, some of the adapter and ign. module wire colors were striped. I plugged it all together, the bike started, idled and reved up fine. I'm waiting for a voltage gage to arrive and wired in to wrap this up and get it out on the road and see how it runs.

Thumbs up Sportster XL 1200 Ignition module

Update:

I took a 40 mile country road ride to check out the Sportster ignition module.
Noticeable difference in the throttle response from a stop thru the gears...better. The bike SEEMS to run smother. Over all...satisfied with the change.

I think I gained 23 RWHP and 8 MPG....oh...I can drag my knees now...!!

Cool. So you could use the later style ignition module with the early style bike harness by using that adapter plug? Sounds good to me and I'll remember that.

The adapter worked fine, minor differences in some of the wire color. Not sure about the later style ignition module though, same year as my ride.
