To the left of the trip tank/odometer reset button?

Nothing. It's a blank filler for an addition switch.

Weird, My 2011 FLTRX-103 came with a Speaker Switch to turn off Front or Rear Speakers if added, or Both.
I wonder why the CVO doesn't come with a switch?

I replaced the blank filler for a "spot" switch to run my 2" spot lights from Headwinds.

Is that a blank where the intercom/CB cable to helmet would plug in if the bike has communications?

Actually, it's called a "gotcha" blank.  The MoCo put that there to let you know that you can spend more money on the bike with more accessories so they "gotcha".... :2vrolijk_21:

Just kidding...I believe this blank is for the spot/passing lamp switch on the Ultra's.  It was on 2011 and 2012 UC Limited and I believe the CVO's those years, too.  As the RG doesn't have passing lamps, not sure what goes/went into that blank.

Interesting.  Just goes to show you not everything is set in stone at the MoCo.

I'll post a pic after I get a few to take it, work keeps getting in my way of my bike time....But all you can see is the switch. I ran the wires into the fairing and opened up a regular garage door opener and soldered the wire to the circut board of it and velcro'd it to hold it in place.

My '11 SERGU has this switch too. It allows you to hear the CB/Inter comm either through the speakers and headset, through the headset only or only the CB/Inter comm. through the headset.

I noted on the original posted photo, there is no 7-pin socket for a headset (mine came with 2 sets of helmet mountable earphones and 2 VOX boom mics). My socket is to the left side of the tank dash panel. I am guessing that this switch was not included because the stock radio does not have a CB/Inter comm?

Weird, but this is the third post I have read this weekend that marks pretty large differences in the '12 and ;13 SERG and my '11 SERGU, specifically heated seats and the CB/ inter comm if that is what the difference is.
