earth cable
tom400f:
Is there not an earthing wire for the battery box that goes under one of the mount screws?
Graeme77:
Maybe, maybe thats what my extra cable is for. Where does it go?

Hi Graeme,
Unsure... assume we're talking 750 K series? (I am!)
I can't find any specifics as to the positioning of the main frame earth, but for ease of servicing have bolted mine on the outside of the mounting bolt. In my pic below it is taped up ...
Might be confused (ie myself), but your rectifier is earthed via its connector plug into the loom of the bike. (Green). This green then appears elsewhere and is bolted to the frame - LHS panel, top LHS.) See attached pic with single scrawled circle. Its a REALLY CRAPPY photo - sorry - but there is a (green) earth eyelet bolted (outside) and going (initially) vertically down before looping up to the right. (& nothing to do with the #1)
Your spare 5" earth cable... is it a heavy duty one.... and actually the +ve from the battery to the solenoid?
A pic of my K2s battery area, fairly accurate methinks.

My bike is an f1.
The rectifier does earth through a green wire though. The only place I can see that green connectsbto the frame is up by the coils.
I have the solenoid to battery cable fitted. The spare cable is just like that one but has set in a u shape. Maybe its not stock.

This is the cable.
