Mine is to the engine mounting bolt on the left - the one right under the side cover.

Here ya' go.  Ground goes to the upper rear engine mount.

The cable I had was correct!!!!!!!!!  Thank you baby Jesus!!!!!!!!!!-it was just mounted wrong and was attached to the tool tray bolt-it tool like 3 minutes to take out that engine bolt and thread the cable down through the frame and that 12" cable fit like a glove- thanks for all the info!!

That sounds about right its not very long. IIRC theres only rly one way to run it up to the battery so its long enough
