Just the single connector under the left side panel. HD sells an adapter that breaks out switched power from it and can also be used to trigger relayed power from the battery direct if you need more amps then the kit is rated.

Do you happen to know the part number for that switched power kit Mchad? The idea of having a relay tap there could be very useful. I'm thinking a louder horn.

OP, the single tap we have on the left side of the fork neck is USB

Ya know I missed his meaning when he said "left side panel". I saw that as being the USB port. If there is indeed a tap under the left side cover that could be leveraged for 12v accessories that would be nice. I don't recall seeing one, the one time I had my left side cover off. But then again, I wasn't looking for one at that time either. Fighting a cold right now or I'd go out and look.

Can you tap into one of the wires going to the headlight?/ Look and see if there is an orange wire with a white stripe, on my Road king that is what I used. Switched power, light on = power, light off = no power. Hope this helps....

j_bee beat me to it... It plugs into a 8 pin Deutsch connector (the grey one) under the left side panel (under the seat)

I would be careful, the canbus bikes are very sensitive to amp draw. Too much may throw a code.
