My mistake, they look like the plugs on the end of the handlebar wiring. I have gotten those (handlebar plugs) at the dealer before. You might want to try Radio Shack or Fry's Electronics.

That is an AMPSEAL connector and they are made by Tyco electronics. I can't tell if it is the 35 pin connector located at the back of the HK radio, or one of the other AMPSEAL connectors on the bike.
Anyway, the wire end uses a socket/connector, and that looks like what you are looking for.
HD sells the wire ends, 72381-98, and calls them "sockets", and Tyco also sells them, but calls them "connectors".
Here is a link to Tyco:

Good luck

another reason to post your city on your profile...someone local might be able to help and reccomend a full service electronics shop.

in PHX, apache electronics surplus carries lots of that stuff.

In LA there are a couple of places in the SF Valley, Luky's ( formerly Joe factor sales) surplus in Burbank is one--- there is another great surplus place over by the 405 and victory

in Toronto the electronics surplus place on W Queens st.

"pins" like that are usually linked into strips or rolls.

you match the diameter, length and the "tang" which holds the pin into the block.

and the cost is about 2 to 5 cents each

if you look at the last page of the instructions, it will give you the part number for those pins and if your dealer can't/won't order them, there are a whole lot of other places that will.
