On the back side of the chrome cover over the handlebar risers there are two switches. The one on the right side operates the Passing Lamps and the one on the left side is an extra switch for accessories.
I followed the wires from theauxiliary switch.Four wires exit the switch and go to a white connector that has only two wires going to it. I assume that one of the two wires isa positivehot wireand the other is the switched wire. I have no idea why there are 4 wires coming out of the switch. Does anyone know what the exra wires are for?
My real question is where do the two wires go to so thatI can connect my portable GPS power lead to the auxiliary switch? They appear to go into the wiring harness behind the headlamp, but where do they exit? Is there a connector to attach to?
Any help on this will be appreciated.

WOW! This thread is 6 years old. 
And in his signature, he long sold his bike.
Perhaps you should start a new thread for get your question answered. But tell us about your ride, it'll make it easier to help out. Good luck.

Yeah I thought it might be a stretch. I was just researching how others handled it and since he had the same GPS and the same bike..... There were a couple of good leads to follow. Gonna pull out the service manual and look at it tonight. If I get stuck I will start a new thread.

I ended up connecting the GPS to the unused Fender Tip Lamp connection found in the Nacelle. Easy to get to and since I have no plans of adding the light it seemed like a great use for it. Works great.

I have an '07, the plug under the right side cover on mine is the data plug for the diag. computer.
