Throttle cable/ front brake pipe route?
Can I have a bit of help please.
Ive reframed the biggest mess of a bike ive ever seen. Every single wiring loom cable on the hole bike has been routed wrong with loads of bits missing or broken.
Ive got it all spot on and at the very end now so this isn't the start of an epic amount of questions.
Id like to know the route of the brake pipes and the throttle cables.
Just things like throttle cable over or under the headlight/ speedo braket. inside of left fork leg. Things like that would be a massive help. Or a picture.

If it's a 30 then the manual has it if I remember right.

Re: Throttle cable/ front brake pipe route?
The manual doesn't actually show these cable routes very clearly. I worked trial and error until they worked but I am not 100 percent sure mine are running correctly. I will check mine for you but as mentioned they could be wrong. If someone knows what is right please chip in

Over the headlight bracket and between the left fork leg and frame, then slot through over the top radiator.
Make sure there's no steep curves or kinks and that the cables don't get tangled with anything

Massive help 
That is how ive got mine but it seems like mine is missing even more brackets than i thought it was.
Ive had a little play and ive got it better. It seems great but the throttle cables just get a little tight on full right lock. Its probably never going to hit that in normal use but i like to get it right
