Right out from under the seat at the tank between my legs. Summer comes and I tuck it back under the seat nicely.

I bring the wife’s/passenger through the slot where the driver backrest goes through the seat. Real easy for her to plug in after mounting the bike. Her’s tucks under the seat for summer also.

Kind of the same as CR. left side forward. I leaveabout 8" to reach the vest plug and tuck it around the nose of the seat when not in use.

Look closely and you can see mine, right where it has been since first hooked up 2 years ago. I like KISS.

I bring mine out on the left side of the seat and zip tie it to the left rear saddlebag guard.

Mine is in the exact same place, just on the other side.

mine comes out right through the middle of the seat, through the hole next to the rider backrest. I have to plug in after I sit on the bike, and by feel. When not in use though, I just tuck it deeper into the hole and it's out of sight.

Hi DrT, looks like you have a front stand - used to be called a 'display stand' - on the front of your bike. Haven't seen one of those for ages, is it H-D or another brand?

It's a 'Drag Rag' not a stand, or as I call it the conversation starter when people start pointing and yelling "Hey! There's something dragging underneath your bike!".
