CABLE ROUTING DIAGRAM
E. Pass the clutch cable in front of
the radiator mounting boss.
F. Install the connector cover so
that it does not come in between
the radiator hose 1 and radiator.
G. Pass the fuel hose between the
hot starter cable and throttle po-
sition sensor lead.
H. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses and overflow hose so that
all there hoses do not contact
the rear shock absorber.

2. Brake hose holder
3. Brake hose
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.
