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 under the throttle ca-
ble on the right side of the frame,
and face its ends, as well as the
tie ends, downward.
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 and clutch
cable 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. Pass the neutral switch lead on
the inside of the engine bracket.
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. Fasten the AC magneto lead
and neutral switch lead onto the
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the rear of the
frame and cut off the tie end.
I. Pass the neutral switch lead and
AC magneto lead on the inside
of the wire harness.
J. Fasten the AC magneto lead
and neutral switch lead onto the
frame.
K. Pass the wire harness through
the cable guide.
L. Locate the couplers in the frame
recess.
M. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose so
that the hoses do not contact the
rear shock absorber.
N. Secure the coupler by pushing it
into the hole in the headlight
unit.
O. Fasten the throttle position sen-
sor lead and the hot starter ca-
ble.P. 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 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.
J. Pass the speed sensor lead
through the guide on the outside
of the front fork.
