Well, if it is anything like my Himi, it is under the clutch leaver, just under the bars.

Which connector is it you're looking for? The one for your phone/GPS, the one for the Tripper, or the one for like heated gear and such?

Right, what @smilespergallon said.
1) The USB-A (c. 5V) connector is underneath the left grip area, with a spring-loaded cover. I use that to power my GoPro camera.
2) I would like to learn about a 12V source, switched with the ignition (i.e., "hot" only when the bike's running), to power some LEDs I'd like to add up front, and maybe in the rear, too. I suspect that there's such an unused connector inside the headlight nacelle, but I'm not sure.
3) I believe the connector for the Tripper -- which I don't have on my Meteor 350 -- is also in there, and might do the trick for me (with the proper connector or DIY splicing).
4) It wouldn't shock me (get it?) if there's also such an unused connector with all the fuses and suchlike, behind the right side panel, although I don't recall reading anything along those lines.

Yes, same as the one one that feeds the USB-A, inside the light nacelle next to the USB one.

Yes, tiny little 6 pin one on mine, only bottom 3 pins used, good luck finding the type of plug, definitely a DIY splicing, if you come up with the plug specs, please tell everyone, you would get a few free coffees.
4) It wouldn't shock me (get it?) if there's also such an unused connector with all the fuses and suchlike, behind the right side panel, although I don't recall reading anything along those lines.
A Euro 4 and Euro 5 connector exists on my bike behind that panel, I used the Euro 4 one to power the Daytona Velona 8K Tachometer that I fitted, sourced a compatible plug to do it. Can unplug it to connect my OB!! scanner if needed.
You would have to peruse the wiring diagram to ascertain the fusing/ current capacity of those options.

This is the accessory connector on my Interceptor inside the headlight bucket. I'd suppose the other bikes have a similar connection?

Thanks for all your help.
I’m fitting a new led headlight bulb next week and will report back on what I find.

The first pic is the ignition switched accessory plug, red one that had a black cap on it you can see hanging down with yellow seal. It is a Sumitomo MT090 2 pin plug, readily available on Amazon/ebay etc, very cheap. I used this to power my Tyre pressure/volt meter indication unit.
2nd pic is the tiny 6 pin Tripper plug, only bottom 3 pins are used. Kudos to whoever can source one.
All inside the headlight nacelle.

Thanks. I just ordered 10 pairs:
I would've been satisfied with one or two pairs (one set to practice on, and possibly screw up), but on that page the price of one set is $8.89 and the price of 10 is $9.04 (and 20 and 30 aren't much more). Maybe the big expense is in postage and handling, or something.
