Default Random switches
I'd like to bounce this off you guys to see of you've seen these before. There are two switches next to my gauges that have blinking lights with them. I can't for the life of me figure out what they go to. Bought this bike used last week from DFWHonda and they didn't know either. Any help is appreciated!!

Start by telling what bike you have.. I have never seen this so I am thinking it's something previous owner did.. I see an Air Pressure gauge, do you have an Air Suspension that one/both the switches operate?

The left one is the Tracker beam locking mechanism.......
And the right one is to the Space Modulator!

That's an easy one...they turn on the blinking lights next to them.

Sorry, haven't updated my signature yet. 2010 street glide. When you turn them on they blink and the further you roll the switch they eventually turn on solid. Nothing seems to turn on when you turn them on.

Defiantly aftermarket ... that being said, take the front of the batwing off and trace the wires to see where they end up. Or close one eye and push/turn the switch.

Just didn't know if anyone had seen these switches used before and if they went with some particular aftermarket piece that you guys are running.
