That looks like a 12v DIN plug so you want a female DIN to 12v DC cig lighter socket, like this

Interesting - usually it's the other way around, bikes tend to have the DIN (smaller) outlets.

Maybe it has the optional 'smoking package'? hehe

I have both on my Triumph Trophy, 3 x 12v cig sockets and 1 x DIN...I think the DIN was aimed at powering heated clothing

Is that the one with the ashtray on the other side of the fairing and the cigar cutter in the drawer under the seat?

The very same.

Slightly O/T but a while back we were highly amused as, in city traffic there was an old boy cutting through the traffic on his BMW, the works: full beard, waxed jacket, checked shirt, glasses, open faced helmet and smoking a pipe...

I didnt bother with the ash tray on mine, opted for more space in the glove box. There is a usefull sunglass holder, but its under the seat. No idea why Triumph thought might be useful biggrin

OP here . It's a 2016 KTM and opposite that cigarette lighter socket is a small cubby hole with a lid that looks exactly like an ashtray from a 1990's Ford .
