It's a continuum trans-functioner!
I have no idea. Does it say anything on it?

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent. But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent. Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep. In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

It appears to be one of those vibrators or buzzers(Blinker Buddy?) attached to the turn signals as a reminder to shut them off. They're often mounted under or in the seat so you can feel them on your butt. Just attach one of the red wires to 12v and ground the single black one, I'll bet it will either buzz or vibrate. What you do with it after that....your call!

Looks like the old style flux capacitor. I had one on a Delorean.

Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is however, extremely unforgiving of: inattention, ignorance, incompetence or stupidity.

It's an electronic trasfuserable measuring device to keep tract of your blinker fluid.

Noise Filter.
Yep, that's my guess also. Bet the PO had an amp hooked up at one time.

Traction control? I've heard they can be really small, all they do is is measure rpm climb and then cut timing. Small and easy to hide that's why iginition systems on stock cars are on top of the dash so they're easy to spot.
But I doubt it.
