Where does this wire hook up on 1980 1100?

I have this extra light blue wire that comes out of the harness along with the rear brake switch wires. I can’t find anything within it’s reach that it could hook up to. I’ve looked at wiring diagrams till I’m light blue in the face!

I no longer have an 1100 so I can't look on a bike but given the location of the wire it may be for the air shock sensor that will light the low air light in the speedo. I very easily could be wrong about this though.

Wiring diagram does show an air switch next to the rear brake switch but does not show any wires going to it. Your probably right.
