CABLE ROUTING DIAGRAM
A. Insert the end of the fuel tank breather hose into the hole in
the steering stem.
B. Fasten the throttle cable, hot
starter cable and rectifier/regula-
tor lead onto the frame. Locate
the clamp end facing the lower
side of the hot starter cable and
cut off the tie end.
C. Fasten the diode (at the mark-
ing), throttle cable and hot start-
er cable onto the frame. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower right of the frame and with
the tie end facing downward.
D. Fasten the wire harness, throttle
position sensor lead, starter mo-
tor lead and negative battery
lead onto the frame. Pass the
clamp through the hole in the
stay (air cut-off valve). Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower side of the frame and cut
off the tie end.
E. Fasten the throttle position sen-
sor lead onto the frame. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower side of the frame and cut
off the tie end.
F. Pass the carburetor breather hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose
between the connecting rod and
cross tube (frame).
G. Fasten the neutral switch lead and oil hose together with the
plastic locking ties and cut off
the tie ends.
H. Fasten the neutral switch lead
and AC magneto lead onto the
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the outside of the
frame and tie end facing toward
the rear of the frame.
I. Pass the clutch cable through
the cable guide.
J. Fasten the starter motor lead, AC magneto lead and neutral
switch lead onto the frame. Lo-
cate the clamp end facing to-
ward the rear of the frame and
cut off the tie end.
K. Fasten the clutch cable, starter motor lead, negative battery
lead, AC magneto lead and neu-
tral switch lead onto the frame.
Locate the clamp end facing to-
ward the rear of the frame and
cut off the tie end.
L. Pass the neutral switch lead and
AC magneto lead on the inside
of the wire harness. M. Fasten the clutch cable, AC
magneto lead and neutral switch
lead onto the frame. Locate the
clamp end near the clutch cable
and cut off the tie end.
N. Pass the clutch cable and wire harness through the cable
guide.
O. Locate the couplers in the frame recess.
P. Pass the carburetor breather hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose so
that the hoses do not contact the
rear shock absorber.
Q. Secure the coupler by pushing it
into the hole in the headlight
unit.

A. Install the brake hose so that its
pipe portion directs as shown
and lightly touches the projec-
tion on the brake caliper.
B. Pass the brake hose into the
brake hose holders. C. If the brake hose contacts the
spring (rear shock absorber),
correct its twist.
D. Install the brake hose so that its pipe portion directs as shown
and lightly touches the projec-
tion on the brake master cylin-
der.

C. Pass the starter motor lead through the hole in the relay
holder.
D. Fit the cover securely.
E. Connect the wire harness to the starter relay.
F. Fasten the catch tank breather
hose and catch tank hose to the
rear frame. Clamp them close to
where they are joined to the
frame. Fasten the pipe tightly
enough not to crush it. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
rear of the frame with the tie end
facing downward.
G. Fasten the (three) CDI unit leads
and taillight lead to the rear
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the upper side of
the frame and cut off the tie end.
H. Connect the negative battery lead to the battery negative ter-
minal.
I. Connect the negative battery lead to the wire harness.
J. Fasten the wire harness to the rear frame. Locate the clamp
end facing toward the upper side
of the frame and the tie end to-
ward the inside of the frame.
Clamp the wire harness at the
marking.
K. Pass the wire harness, starter relay lead, starting circuit cut-off
relay lead and negative battery
lead through the hole in the relay
holder.
L. Fasten the (three) CDI unit leads and taillight lead to the rear
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the lower side of
the frame and cut off the tie end.
M. Fasten the taillight lead to the rear frame. Locate the clamp
end facing toward the upper side
of the frame and cut off the tie
end.
N. Do not allow the taillight lead to
slacken.
O. Locate the CDI unit lead be- tween the CDI unit and rear
fender.
P. Locate the CDI unit coupler in the clearance between the up-
per side of the CDI unit and low-
er side of the catch tank stay.
Q. Locate the CDI unit lead be-
tween the CDI unit and rear
frame.
