Okay. I don't think these bikes were fitted with radios (unlike the LTs?), so maybe a previous owner had one at some stage.

Factory fitted radios are on the left as far as I know , unless PO moved it , which would have taken a lot of modding ,
maybe they had a 2 way CB or intercom unit in there. Just a thought .

I'm going to state the obvious: trace the cable and find out where it hooks into the main loom. If you can then give us the colours of the wires that it connects to, we stand a good chance of identifying its purpose.

Its held in place with some duct tape so it's not factory. Its a coaxial cable connector for an aerial as charlie said. Nothing like that would've been fitted for an AM/FM radio. Its for CB. You'll probably find the other end up the back where the aerial was.
