Thanks.

I went out and looked the frame over and located the exact hole for proper placement . I also found that the photos I had previously posted tricked the eye a bit, as that speedometer cable is not actually laying on top of the muffler at all as it appears, but is maybe a couple of inches above it.

There was a big grease globule at the frame where it was routed and I put my hand right into it as I ran my fingers down the cable near that mounting point. I'll have to check that out, as I had my speedometer refurbished and re-calibrated and I don't want to have cable issues when I reinstall it in the near future.

Again, thanks for all the input and photos.
