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.
