were you looking for a place to put your plug for the trickle charger, electric vest power, or what? for the trickle charger plug, mine is at the right side of the bike under the right side cover tucked with the plug end sticking out somewhat near the chrome cover for the end of the starter.

had mine on the right sidecover on the old RK. But on the new one I'm using the 2 prong plug thats used for the battery tender to power a 12V port made by boheimian biker that lets me charge things right in my saddlebags. For less than $10 shipped!! There is a kit from the MOCO for a 12V port that mounts on the handlebar too.

I bought the HD 12 volt plug with the Deutsch connector. Hell I make them all the time for Trucks, so I made one and go to plug it in. Nothing..... I look at the instructions for the HD one. It says it works on everything BUT A ROAD KING CLASSIC!!!! I test the pins in the conection and it is backwords. I remake the conector to work. Now is this Right or is that Deutsch connector under the seat for somthing else?

Any Help would be cool.

Thanks in advance
