Did not remove the tank this time. Could someone post a picture of the grounding location on the neck? Currently grounded directly to battery. Would like to ground HU to neck if possible.

BT is very adamant about grounding to the triple tree as shown in their instructions. They also recommend the head unit to be grounded at the same location.
