    In other words, I do not know exactly what connector you need or where to get it. I know that mine did not work correctly. Hopefully someone else will chime in.
    Thanks 98valk , I have looked all over and I can't find info on that. Only thing I found was one from showchrome, for 2001-2005 Goldwings but nothing for newer since they all come with rear speakers 2006 and up, and unsure if its the same connector?- probably not. Also nothing clear on Hondas Part Site, Partzilla-etc, hope someone chimes in. Wanting to make a premade harness before taking my bike apart. I'm just going to add an mono amp and a single subwoofer with a remote gain controller to balance and up the bass as needed, going to leave the front speakers stock for now. Trying a different approach than others have so far and hopefully works out, I shall see.

    I did some searching and found the same as you did. Rear speaker harnesses are available for 2001-2005 models.

    Now if I were a bettin' sort of guy (which I am with your money ), I would bet the wiring is different, but the connector is the same. You are going to modify the wiring anyway ...

    Nothing ventured , nothing gained. I may do the $20+ gamble. The wiring color no big deal and with that said, they just don't make them for F6B's since they don't have rear speakers and all newer Goldwing's already have them. WHY NOT TRY. I will verify after trail and error and for the 1st 23 People that ask for this info , a $1.00 fee each LOL- just kidding (J/K). I will post soon on my findings so others will know in the future, and thanks again 98valk for trying.

    Oh for pete's sake , use the wiring diagram, cut the plug and make your own connections.

    LOL - Just a preference for me, don't like cutting wires if I don't have to and easier to put back to stock if needed.

    Same here! I don't like modding wiring that much away from stock.

    Positaps might be a thing to consider.
