      Its right below the timing tensioner?
      The guy asked me, I told him I'd find out. Then he bought the bike.

          Yeah maybe for an earlier version of the engine. It isn't milled to the final configuration, since it's not being used.

            I see that now!!! just drill a hole completely thru, then a larger hole in the backside to seat the cable...
            it's always something simple.
