Hi Yazan, I am not aware that Harley use different connectors in different markets, so I don't think that is the reason. They have changed connectors over the years, as examples my 1990 Evo is different to my later bikes. However what year and model of bike are you talking about?

Like AMC cars, Rather than spec parts to their suppliers, Harley buys what they can make work from whoever they get the best deal from.
