earthing points how many

<< < (2/3) > >>

LesterPiglet:
It doesn't really matter as long as it's bare metal. And run it to the inside so it looks neater.

Bryanj:
Originaly it does go to the engine mounting bolt on the outside as you have it BUT you need to remove pwder coat from both sides I.I where it touches the engine case and where the earth lead connects. Somewhere I have a NOS mounting plate if i can find it i will post pics.

Other earth is the small green wire by the coils and the bracket that that goes to needs to be bare as well

LesterPiglet:
That's a drain screw from the carb, I'm doing some maintenance. Wrong clutch cable Ill see if I can correct that.

LesterPiglet:
I've just looked at a few manuals and the clutch cable is installed the same as mine.

SteveD CB500K0:
I can see that one nut acts as the spacer to adjust the cable slack, and the other locks onto it (as a locknut)

My 500 is the same.
