ok, 29 views and no one has a guess? No one has a shop manual handy and can pass on the info. Maybe I should have hidden a bike related question in a picture, video, political statement or something of that nature?
the posted question came up as I was taking the side panels off the r3 and some hd riding friends asked about the reference cable. As I don't have the manual with me, I said, I'll just post it to the site with informed r3 owners and get an answer asap. My Bad.
