Hi Gang. I'm re-assembling my 630 and for all the documenting I did of the routing of wires/hoses I didn't snap a pic of this one on dis-assembly...and the manual isn't much help. It's the gear position sensor wire. I know it runs up through a "tunnel" of sorts between the slave cylinder mount flange and the case- that's shown in the first pic (you'll see the black sheath sticking out of the top...heading upwards.) What's got me concerned is the lower part of the wiring- closer to the GPS itself- that seems scarily close to where the chain will be spinning. Because of the white connector plug (at the other end of the wire) I can't see how it would be routed better (like getting into that "tunnel" sooner/lower.) If someone can look at theirs and let me know what's right that would be great. I'm hoping to work on it again tonight. Here are the pics: This showing the wire exiting the top- out of the "tunnel" and behind that bolt: Pic from below: Pic w/ sprocket on: Another:
Hmmm, you'd think I'd have thought of that. Not sure if there's enough slack, but worth a shot (but also don't wanna leave it vulnerable either.) As a matter of fact- now that I think about it- that may not work as I think the cover is pretty much flush against the slave mount flange (and that's where the wire would have to come out as I know it does route through that little "tunnel" at the top of the flange.) Still, I'll double check, of course. If one of you guys can look at yours to see how the factory routed it that would be great. Thanks for the response!
It routes in front of the clutch slave, between the slave and the engine case/flange. There is then a metal clip/retainer thingy (about 4 inches above the clutch slave) on the back of the coolant overflow bottle that both the clutch line and the GPS line are clipped into. I think this is showing the GPS cable from underneath (red arrow is my guess). That's how I routed mine anyway:
I'll double check my bike and get back to you. EDIT: Yep, more or less how it runs on my bike anyway....for better or worse
SimpleOne- this is great, thanks. I guess I got caught up thinking that I have to be able to route the wire and sheath through that tunnel (but the connector makes it impossible to do that from the right starting point) and I hadn't thought (duh) that I should be able to remove the slave and then slide it into that narrow cavity between the case and flange and then re-attach the slave. I'll try that. Thanks again.
No dramas, I made exactly the same mistake when I put mine together and had to take the clutch slave back off as well. No biggie, just another little time suck
