Mystery Wire after service work on 2009 F-800GS

2009 F800GS mystery connector. I believe I got a bit overambitious this past month. I figured I could check my valves and replace my ignition coils, and I did (!) but after putting everything back together I am at a loss about where this rascal goes. I know that the connector on the top is for my din connector thingy but I cannot figure out where the other connector's mate is. Any hints would be very much appreciated. mystery wire.jpg
 
Welcome!

The two-wire connector is for the DIN power plug (Powerlet style) on the underside of the plastic false tank that sits next to the key.

The three wire plus is an accessory plug that was used to power a GPS connector (or whatever you want, here's the connector BMW part number: 83300413858). If you don't have the (now old) GPS, then the connector clips into the top of the battery hold down plastic.

You can see that plastic clip on some of the pictures here:
