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. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose
between the connecting rod and
cross tube (frame).
F. Fasten the neutral switch lead and oil hose together with the
plastic locking ties and cut off
the tie ends.
G. 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.
H. Pass the clutch cable through the cable guide.
I. 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.
J. 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.
K. Pass the neutral switch lead and AC magneto lead on the inside
of the wire harness.
L. 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. M. Pass the clutch cable and wire
harness through the cable
guide.
N. Locate the couplers in the frame
recess.
O. Pass the carburetor breather hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose so
that the hoses do not contact the
rear shock absorber.
P. Secure the coupler by pushing it into the hole in the headlight
unit.
Q. Fasten the throttle position sen- sor lead and the hot starter ca-
ble.
R. Locate the clamp between the hot starter cable protector and
rubber cap.

A. Fasten the start switch lead to the handlebar with the plastic
bands.
B. Fasten the engine stop switch
lead and clutch switch lead to
the handlebar with the plastic
bands.
C. Pass the brake hose through the hose guides.
D. Secure the coupler by inserting
it into the multi-function display
bracket.
E. Pass the throttle cables, clutch
cable and hot starter cable be-
tween the upper bracket and
multi-function display bracket.
F. Fasten the multi-function display leads to the bracket. Cut off the
tie end.
G. Secure the coupler by pushing it into the hole in the multi-function
display bracket.
H. Secure the wire harness clip by pushing it into the hole in the
multi-function display bracket on
the inside.
I. Fasten the wire harness to the multi-function display bracket.
Cut off the tie end.
J. Fasten the main switch lead (wire harness side) to the multi-
function display bracket. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower side of the frame and cut
off the tie end.
K. Pass the speed sensor lead through the guide on the outside
of the front fork.
