Clutch cable guide
Deek:
Mine is on the breather cover rear bolt like rbt. Although it has been taken off since the bike was new I think it's been put back in the original position and had no issues for the first 100,000 miles...

Yes Ted, it sits almost directly under the coils, so with the tank clearing the coils it will clear the cable holder.

I think that’s the spot if I’m honest, I had issues with it fouling stuff, including the tank but when I get home I’ll revisit that and get it in to see how things sit

It's meant to sit the other way up with the flanges of the ring facing down, this then stops the ring rotating and keeps it in the correct orientation. In which case the end bolt is probably the only one it would fit.
Honda wouldn't have put the flanges on the ring unless they had a use.

That does make sense and is probably correct.
I will leave mine as it is just now as I am content with it and would need to disconnect the cable to take the guide off and turn it the other way round. Once I take the cable off I will try it in the location suggested by Oddjob.
