yes, harley-davidson does make a wiring harness but i don't know if it'd work for the burly set up. splicing the wiring together would be your best bet. you don't have to worry about bulky connectors around/under your tank that way. if you are hell bent on not splicing just run over to your local harley shop and ask them their opinion. maybe the harness would work. good luck on whatever you do! ride safe.

guess i didn't really read all your post. i see you already checked about the harness. they still should be able to help you out. unless they are all a bunch of tools. if not splice. it is a clean look and fun to do!
