T595 Ground Wire Fixing Point

@Slingshot_Daytona_97 I can take a look tomorrow but do you have a photo of the wire/connector to make what you are looking for easier for me to find?

Cheers

Hmmmm, I don’t see any cables like this under my seats and wonder if it might be a retrofit Earth strap for something else perhaps? Placement wise, it almost looks like it should connect to the Negative battery terminal (such as a battery optimiser) but the nut and bolt in your photo suggests not.

 

Nice one, glad you found it

 

OK, I just had another look and, short of taking the panels and tank off, I still can't see anything that resembles your connector. However, I can confirm that no cables are attached to the plastic where your picture shows.

I have a Haynes manual and I guess it might simply be the "chassis earth point" illustrated? In which case it can bolt anywhere on the frame presumably.

 

Mine is an early bike, so it has no earth block but there's a couple of ground wires that affix to the rearmost alternator mounting bolt.

 

As long as it attaches to the metal, I don't see how it matters much. Of course, it will not work attached to plastic. ...J.D.

 

Hi.. Dont know if you got sorted but the wire with bolt through, bolts through the ECU body to the plastic battery box... Yep i know it doesnt make sense.. but the purpose of that wire is to ground the ecu body via the wiring loom and not via the frame. Ive just finished sorting mine and replacing the ecu and I can assure you this is correct.

 

WIERD ...J.D.
