Cable routing.....

[sinto607276]

To suppress Sintos confused state :lol

I resemble that remark :b

It is the diode for the Neutral Light circuit, on the 98-99 models it is under the tank and on the foxeye models it is integrated into the Starter cut out relay and the 2000-2001 models it is as you see in Anutzs picture

Ahh, that's cleared it up, cheers

I can see a question coming here  :eek

No more questions your honor :rolleyes

[anutz]

The issue is how this connection and routing happens...

[unfazed]

Relay is in the wrong way, rotate it 90degrees anticlockwise from where it is in the picture and then follow the previous clear as mud instruction

[anutz]

thanks Unfazed.....i shall try that.... :lol

[anutz]

not sure its in the wrong way, if i rotate it then nothing reaches and the positive lead is pointing the wrong way....

[unfazed]

The red lead comes out the back and turns to the right and over the top of the relay between the connections and the fuses to the battery positive. When all tightened up push the lead down the rear of the relay.

Check out the routing on page 15 of the manual

:'( This is harder than getting the timing chain and cams lined up!

Tommorow i shall have another bash  :b

You'll be fine anutz, as suggested by unfazed,  you'll be looking a book with pictures in it :b :rollin

[anutz]

OK think i got it!

[unfazed]

Not quite correct. Take off the red cable from the battery and pull it back, then put it to the right side of the relay (bike right side) and back to the battery over the top of the relay. The black cable looks fine.
The reason it goes over the top of the relay is that it make it easier to remove and move away from the battery if ever it is necessary when working on the bike.
I will try and get a picture of mine later.

ah i see what you mean, i will go re-route that little bugger......you see.....it was easier to get the engine timing right  :lol

Here is the picture of mine and it has been that way for 86000miles :lol

Is that a crop circle to the right of your picture unfazed?  :b
