    Default Audio connector right side of fuel tank?

    I've checked the service manual and can't find the purpose for the audio looking connector near what appears to be 2 sensors on the right side of the fuel tank on a 2015 RT. Anyone know what this is?RightSideConn.jpg

    I bought the bike used, but don't think it had a CB on it.

    Default GPS

    The cable you have pictured is the GPS harness between the radio and the Cradle for mounting your GPS. The three ends that are capped off aren't used. The one plugged is is the audio from the GPS to the radio.

    They are the cables for the Garmin 590. I rerouted the capped USB connector up and out at the right dash speaker. I now only have to run a short cable from it and into my tank bag to charge my iPhone.

    I have an 2016 RTS, which does not come with the CB. I bought an extension cord at Radio Shack (probably need Amazon now) 1/8" male to 1/8" male, routed it up and out of the rectangular pop-out on the handlebars. Drilled a hole and used a rubber grommet. Plug it into my iPhone for GPS and Amazon Prime Music! I then also took out the analog gauges (that data shows up on CD automatically if you do), and installed nice aluminum dual USB on one side and a cigarette lighter on the other for a Garmin (bad weather GPS). Got them from an advertiser on this sites main page. Pretty easy routing included wires to battery in front. I can keep iPhone topped off, plug in my Sena BT (or wifes) if running low, etc. Nice to have power up front. Just some ideas!

    Default Audio Connector Right Side of Fuel Tank

    Does anyone know if the 2014 RT-S has this same audio type plug? And if so, where it's located?
    Thanks!
