Cable Clamp Under Bottom Yoke
« on: November 11, 2023, 05:28:42 PM »
Hello,
Working through the bike and checking what is missing using the parts list I have found the loom clip under the bottom yoke is not fitted. I assume from the parts list that there is a M8 threaded hole in the yoke for this to bolt to? This threaded hole missing from my yoke, it is an ‘American’ type for yoke as the steering lock hole is in the wrong place for the UK side mounted lock. Guess how I found that out! 
Am I correct expecting a threaded hole in the yoke? If I am correct and it was not used on the US version does anyone know how they supports the loom?

Thanks for peoples help to date.

My 400 has a threaded hole near the right lock stop.
I guess you could make a bracket to run it off the three way connector. No idea how the US loom routes.
If there is an undrilled lug could you drill & thread it front center looks suitable?

My parts manual appears to show the bracket bolted to the center of the lower yoke.

Amended: don't know my left from my right.
