Can anybody point me in the direction of where the earths are on my bike?

Found one on the starter motor and what looks like one just above the side stand.

All help mucho appreciated :)

Oops sorry

2001 rsvr in yellow ;)

The main one from the battery goes to the right hand side of the rear head I think. Not a bad idea to add another. Speak to Killaprilla on here about his uprated starter cables/additional earth kit.

Rob :)
 
Cheers for that

Is it a tank up job or access from side panel?

I have not done anything with the original earth lead, I just left it alone. You can probably get away with just removing the right hand fairing mid-panel to access the point where it is anchored to the engine.

This is a description of fitting the Killaprilla leads to a gen 1 bike that I wrote a few weeks ago. http://rsvzone.com/forums/showthread.php?18602-Killaprilla-Heavy-Duty-Lead-Upgrade-(Gen-1)

Taken the side panel off, still can't see the main earth anywhere :confused

Anybody got a pic that could help :)

Sorry mate just checked and you do have to lift the fuel tank at the front. The earth attachment is on the right hand side of the rear cylinder and directly behind the main side member of the frame. Not sure that you could even get a clear picture due to where it is.

Cheers mate

Sounds a bit awkward to get to

Bike seems to be fitting up ok again so I'll leave the checking of the earth for another day

Thanks again!!
 
Found it, what a bugger that is to get to, looks to be Coleen enough and tight enough as far as I can tell?
