Random blue wire (!?)

This is my third post today! I've just noticed that there was a random blue wire that seems to be hanging loose from this wire harness next to the steering column.

Is this normal? I'm guessing not. It doesn't seem to impact anything except I have noticed that the neutral icon on my dashboard has suddenly stopped working... But my Gear indicator has been a little twitchy for the last year flinching between first and second gear and now neutral is completely gone.

New tires (update)

I posted a question last year on recommendations for tires:

I ended up picking up the Bridgestone Adventurecross AX41.

The initial difference was crazy for someone who has only ever ridden on highway tires. The first few kilometers I felt like I was learning to ride a bike again! Have taken these out on some gravel finally and love them. Happy with the decision and recommend!

The extra bonus is the bike. Looks a lot more badass with these guys. 😂

Harness for tank bag on 650

So I feel really stupid here (amateur hour). I have a gnome tank bag and I for the life of me cannot figure out how to put the harness around the steering column without impacting some of the wires or the steering.

If anybody can provide instructions for dummies or a video that would be awesome!
