I admit I did a weak attempt of searching the forum so far.......but in the interest of time.......does anyone have any pics showing the cables and harnesses routed near the steering neck and the wiring in the battery area.....links to the thread would be fine......PO definately didn't put back to stock and I would like to make a descent attempt.......in the mean time i'll try some more searching....TIA guys.

OK. I've got four cables:
Throttlr
Choke
Tach
Clutch

Maxrl's Cable Routing Pics:
750 (top pic)
I see three cables. It's obvious two are the throttle & choke. The third makes since to be the tach (cause it's down on that motor side). I would then think the fourth is the clutch and would be on the other side of the neck (it's on that side of the motor).

H2B/C (shot from front/LH side)
Only shows main harness. Maybe cable wasn't run just yet?

H2B (further down-shot from RH side)
Only shows two cables.

Am I correct in routing as noted in the first pic? Three cables on RH side and clutch on LH side? Makes sense that way.

Edit: Tach for Speedo

I used old road test for proper location of wiring under the seat and other areas
Do you still need a photo?

Yeah. That would be great if you have one available. Unsure what your reffering to specifically as "Old Road Test". I presume out of a magazine or something?
