is this a new bike or used one you purchased?

 

That is not OEM

 

That looks like a battery tender/heated jacket SAE plug installed by someone.

The flat connector is a bit strange because the 2 round ones are a standard SAE connector which is quite universal.
Maybe some kind off battery tender.

Yea I've got connector similar to it that I could use but this one is a fair bit larger so the std connector that looks like it will not work at all.  Easy enough to chop of and redo but I'm interested in finding out what it is.

Yep just bought. 3k on clock. Tons of extras.  Some im going to sell eg lowering seat and links plus kappa spot/fog lights.

If you are able to get hold of the seller, I would ask him what brand of thing did he used for?

 

I normally see 2 pins...this 3 pins is somewhat new to me

Thanks for that! Now I'm wondering how a HD charger got on to my Yamaha 😕

After a little snooping around the internet I found the following discussion on a HD forum, seems to have some answers to your question.

kinda neat the 3rd pin provides more amp...now I am curious if I can get them from a HD dealer for higher amp heated gear plug in.
