I'm pretty sure it's the oscillation overthruster indicator.

...but Buckaroo told me not to disclose that information to anybody but BB Irregulars. You are one I take it?

I thought it was a low blinker fluid indicator.

The LED in the triple clamp is for the Datatool alarm. You can buy the alarm at a dealer or some websites sell it. I've had mixed results using the alarm. Its one of those, it either works really well, or you're draining batteries and its constantly going off.

The LED will blink at different rates to tell you which mode the alarm is in and if you somehow lose your keyfob, you can use the LED and ignition with your key to disable it using the correct sequence of turns.

I thought that little gizmo was the BS indicator, warning one and all to get off their duffs and go for a ride in the real world. Winters can be too dern long for some parts of the country. :-D

It flashes when there is a Harley near by, so you can close the visor and don't have to smell the BS. Pretty much stays on all the time around here :-D
