Clutch cable goes in thru the "hole" made by the gauge bracket and passes downward along the right side frame tube, secured to the tube by straps. Install this cable first. Next, install both throttle cables, starting with the "pull cable" first. These also go thru the "bracket hole" and criss- cross OVER the previously installed clutch cable, wrap around the steering neck to the left side of the bike, go under the tank mount cusions, and extend rearward under the tank and in the center of the frame to the carb linkage. The brake hose also goes thru the same hole on its way down to the brake lite switch/junction mounted on the lower clamp. This is the basic routing, it'll start to make sense when you try it. Sorry I couldn't send a pic. Speedo and tach cables do not route with other cables. Each one routes straight down, along the indents in the back of the headlite housing, then thru a loop bolted to the lower triple clamp on the right side of bike. Tach cable then goes thru a chromed clip attached to the horn on its way to the valve cover and speedo cable goes down to fender thru a rubberized loop on the right side on its way to the speedo gear. Best I can without a pic, wish you good luck. :)
