Re: [ST] Heated Grip Connector (and wiring)???

[Colt4530 <colt4530@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know where to get a mating connector, I'd like to know that my 
self.  The connector is just below the headlights.  You have to remove 
the center piece of the faring to get to it.  On my RS its pigtail is 
very short.  That makes installing 3M taps frustrating.  You are correct 
on the wiring; the center pin is ground.
