name the part ?

[hell yea]

any ideas fond this in my box off venture:confused24: parts

[Huggy]

Looks like a lead for some sort of owner added accessory.

Looks like a quick connection for a battery charger. Wire it up to your battery then all you do is plug in the connection to the charger.

[Black Owl]

Quick connect for battery charger.

Or a piece of wire thingy to drive Bubber crazy....

[bongobobny]

Uhhh, no, that's shrink tube on the end of a filter capacitor, not a connector. It's for noise suppression for the radio but by the size of it it probably isn't very effective...

 

Or maybe it's an LED. We need bigger picture of the black end and different angles...

[ragtop69gs]

Looks like the blasting cap for the ejection seat. HANDLE IT WITH CARE !

[Eck]

It looks more like the quick disconnect / connector for a heated vest or some type of clothing to me .

It sure don't look like a battery tender cord. The ends of battery tender cords are "off set" in length with male/female ends

\

Edit: I have to agree with Bongobobny (below post) in that it appears to look more like a capacitor ...the end would not plug into a heated garment as I originally thought.

Looks like a 12 volt connection to an adult accessory.

 

 

Wait a minute... only Harley riders use those...:stirthepot:

[Kirby]

Ok, I agree with the others, not a connection for battery charger. Maybe it's what my grandaddy always told me. When I asked about things, he would always say, "It's something to make little boys like you to ask questions".

[hell yea]

so far the radio suppressor is the best bet but im cluless when it cums to electrical s

[bongobobny]

Yah, just install it across your battery. It should not draw any current at all.

 

 

How a capacitor works: A capacitor is just two pieces of tin foil separated by an insulator, and then rolled up into a cylinder. Each piece of foil has a lead attached to it. When you hook it up to a battery each piece of foil becomes the same voltage as what it is connected to. Once charged up, which only takes a few milliseconds, these pieces of foil tend to keep the exact same voltage difference between them. When you initially turn any device on, the battery voltage "spikes" or changes for a split second. The capacitor will resist this change in voltage and reduce the spike. These spikes can make a noise in the audio system.

 

What you have, if it is indeed a filter and not a light, isn't very big and will probably have very little effect. Most noise capacitors for good noise filtering are more like the size of a flashlight...

[hell yea]

its definitely not a light seams to be solid metal under the heat shrink :confused24:its a triky one

[bongobobny]

Yup! Small filter capacitor for noise then...

[Rolltide]

Looks like the plug for the flux capacitor ..............this is what makes time travel possible:12101:

[hell yea]

was wandering why i was stuck in the 80s

[paysaw]

It could be a hum-bucking coil on the end of a power cable to an audio device.The black case could be where the fuse goes.There could be the other part of the fuse holder with cables missing.

[Drreb]

What are these loose wires.....

[Huggy]

Come on now!! Whats wrong with you guys anyway??? It's plain to see that its thingumabob for the doohickey that keeps it from becoming a Hardley!!!!

[KIC]

Nope...no DooHickey on the Venture... the only bike I know that officially has a DooHickey is the Kawasaki KLR650.

 

And I have the special tools to remove and fix the DooHickey !!

That looks like a part of this replacement cable from Sierra. Look at the bottom of the picture.

I think Karaboo wins the contest here...I agree it is the same as the cord in the bottom picture.

Let us know what the winning prize was..............

[bongobobny]

Yuop

!! that;s the critter!! Meant to eliminate or minimize noise inn the intercom!!

[hell yea]
