Default Switch of sort
Can anyone tell me what this lever type switch is for? Just bought this 2003 Anniversary Road King. The previous owner did not know. See attached pic.


There’s a line or wire to a valve of sort between the two heads.

Looks to me like a decorative cover to hide the fuel line assembly. I could be wrong.

I never saw one like it but a petcock? Is the bike carbed or EFI?

It looks like it's EFI based on that line.

Maybe a fuel cutoff line? Not sure why they'd need something like that on a stock bike though.....
