    speedo cable routing???? RD04

    Was wondering if someone could put up a picture of their speedo cable from the drive up the fork leg and past the mud guard, the one on my bike just doesn't look right there's a hose clip around the fork leg to keep it from rubbing on the brake disc, it broke after a show off wheelie and i don't want to break another.

    Post them to a free hosting site, such as Flickr and then simply use the photo button to insert them in your post.

    Nope. Private forum that does not let me in. They need to be hosted on a publicly available website.

    so, open pic, get its location (on a PC right click I think and go to properties and copy the HTML address for its location) it look like this:
    http://images1.fotopic.net/?iid=ytpz...800&quality=70
    start a post, click on the image button (small yellow square with two little mountains on it) and paste this address into the box, click OK and:


    here is other one for you:

    That cable doesn't look right to me. Shouldn't it go inside the right hand fork (clamped tight with a plastic clamp), then through an oval guide hanging of the rear of the mudguard, then up through the hole in the fairing splash plate?

    1 Varadero/17,000 miles ridden (of 40,000 miles on the bike), it's all still new to me!
