    Default RTSE5 Won't Shift At All, What Is This Connector???

    Went for a ride today...about 100 miles total. No problems at all. Got home, and tried to shift from 1st into Neutral to park the bike. Would not shift into neutral, or reverse...tried many times. Put on parking brake, and killed the engine. Started it with foot on brake...no problem starting, but still in 1st gear. Would not shift at all.

    I checked the oil level...it was fine. Then I noticed this "connector" hanging down about a foot back from the oil tank. (See pic) I have no idea of what it's supposed to connect to, but I'm guessing that it's involved with the inability to shift. Can anyone tell me where this connector goes? It has a hex screw tightener, and looks similar to an old fashioned battery cable connector, but smaller. There's little to no play in its cable (an inch of wiggle room at most), so it must connect close to where I see in hanging. I've tried to identify it on schematics, but no luck. What is this, and where does it go???
