Hi everyone, when I bought my bike (1998 S3), it did not have the seat latch cable. I just got one and I can't tell where the "T" part of the cable mounts. Can someone post a picture of how this mounts and is routed? The parts book doesn't even picture it. Thanks in advance, Dan |

Dan, the cable mounts to the left side of the frame on a bracket welded to the down tube near the battery. I may have a junk S3 frame with that bracket still on it. Kevin |

Hopefully these pics of my 1998 S3T Defender will provide more info than ever needed.

![1019](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/47623/804452.jpg) Can't say for sure that it's routed properly (as from factory), but it seems appropriate and from what I recall worked fine... 1313 |

Thanks guys, I got installed this weekend. I'm not sure I routed it as per the factory either, but it went in, doesn't seem to bind and works. You can't ask for much more than that. It's funny, I really couldn't see any evidence that there was one there originally. Oh well, it's there now. |
