Where does the speedo drive go on a Harley Davidson?
The speedo drive mounts on the (usually left side) axle, in place of a spacer. There’s a tab that sticks out on it, that should fit into a small void in the brake rotor. The other end, (outside end) of the speedo unit, sits on a small tab that sticks out on the lower fork leg.

Is the speedo drive on the front wheel?
Yes, normally the speedo drive is on the front wheel, but I’m assuming (always a dangerous practice) that this may be part of the rear ABS system, since a variance in wheel speed between front and rear would indicate lock-up. But I still can’t find that elusive 3-wire plug.
