Can't identify connector

[harper]

Curse Yamaha and their tortuous battery access for Gen2!!

My 2006A has a 15A fused line that goes under the gas tank to the left side. It has a pigtail coming out with a coaxial connector that I can't identify. A previous owner installed this line I suppose. It may be the mate to some heated clothing but I just don't know. Any ideas?

I would like to use it to run an air compressor for tire filling. If I can locate the mate to the connector I can avoid cutting this one off and splicing a connector in line.

Here is the end on view:

Heated gear, possibly. I've seen similar connectors. Is there an inline fuse? That'd offer some clue.

It's a Gerbing Heated clothes lead. I have them mounted on my 06.

Most heated gear uses that connector. Here is a good place to start.

I run my heated gear, air compressor and battery tender off that cord.

Excellent. I found a site with an SAE to Gerbings male adapter. This will allow me to keep the connector and plug in a short adapter to run a compressor. Thanks for the tip.

Does that cord have the Gerbings coax connector on it or did you put a different connector on it? And this is some after-market, fused pigtail, not stock. Did you just run a similar cable? I figure the 15A will let me run about any motorcycle air compressor I want. I was thinking of buying the Aerostich that you recommended in this thread:

It's not really all that hard to access the battery fully...

After doing it once it's really pretty easy. The maintenance manual suggests that lots of stuff has to come off before the panel that covers the battery. It actually only takes removing two screws with a 4mm allen and popping out a plastic snap connector and that panel comes out easily.
