Hey all,
Could someone take a picture of the cable routing behind the front-left side of the main fairing? (sitting on the bike perspective) I just want to make sure that I've put everything back the way it was for my main fairing re-install!
Cheers.

Not sure if this helps - these were taken as I was stripping my bike down in 2018 (to help me put it back together !!).





And one with part of the wiring removed.

Just so you know... cable routing diagrams are shown in the Factory Service Manual.

off topic but can someone tell me about the electrical boxes in the pic which are normally hidden from view. Is one involved with blinkers? Mine recently stopped self canceling.

That front box is the flasher relay unit.I think the self cancelling function relies on the speedometer turning. The spinning magnetic disk of the speedometer opens and closes the reed switch located in the instrument housing above where the speedometer mounts and that is the cancelling input to the flasher relay.

Makes sense to me too,  since my Speedo went bananas and I pulled the cable until I get it repaired. Did not put the two together. :Facepalm:
Thanks, great pics.
