What is it? Well, it appears to be a white-shelled electrical connector.whats this??
What is supposed to be connected to it?
As Nessism asked, what colors are the wires coming out the back side?
Even if two of the four are cut off flush with the connector, the remaining two might give some clues.

no?? it looks to be all stock, just the previous owner was definitely not apt on a few things.
also, ill get the cut wire colors in the AM. but that still doesnt help me to what that connector connects to.
It connects to the ignitor box. Please check the factory service manual, there should be a diagram showing where all the various electrical parts can be found.

You might want to pull off the ignition cover and look to see what kind of ignition is on the bike. Maybe someone installed an aftermarket ignition like the Dyna-S that does not require an ignitor. At any rate, the ignitor is typically mounted in the battery box area, commonly on the RH side of the bike.

Those are the colors for one of the ignitor plugs but they usually employ spade connectors in the OEM harness. Looks like an aftermarket plug with those terminals.

took apart the harness some more, (a part i thought was good) more cut and spliced wires, one ignition coil is to the plug i showed, then the other two are on a seperate send off to the main section. looks to be some sort of aftermarket ignition. Ness, ill check that out a little later today. its a little too Africa hot outside for me.
