Its the area below the right side of the air cleaner. Could be wires to

a) overrun cut-off switch
b) oil pressure switch

What colour are the wires

Thanks Nick.

So what should this be connected to? There didn't seem anything obvious within it's reach.

I have one of these loose wires as well....

Everything electrical works (oil temp, pressure etc) and there is nothing within reach (or even out of reach) for it to fit to. Wiring diagrams also offer no help on the colours or possible use.

I just stopped worrying about it eventually!

Maybe is something to do with MFI on the US 'T's rather than the carbs on the Euro versions?
