Default O2 cable routing

Decided to post this in the dyna section. I installed V&H big shots on my '15 street Bob. I routed the back o2 sensor cable as it was stock, but due to the new pipes the sensor wire touches the engine casing. I can't remember if it touched stock. I tried cable tying it to the main wiring harness under the seat but still touches a tad. What did others do? Just let it rub the engine? Any SB owners that have run new pipes hopefully can comment.

Yah, mine is routed from the pipe, to the side of the battery cover, to the left side of the bike and tucked in behind the ECM, not touching any hot surfaces

Ya know it is Ok to make a loop in the end of the wire to take out the slack before you tie it up.
It's wire, it will bend.

The issue is it needs to be pulled up and to the left so it stays clear of the engine, but there's not a place to easily tie it to for that to happen.

Thanks but do you have a 14,15 or 16 Street Bob? The pics you posted doesn't even look like mine. Its easy to route wires, the issue is the actual o2 sensor on the pipe is angled in a way that the cable comes very close to the engine. In order to keep it away you must pull the cable to the left and attach it to the battery cover, even though thats not really possible. I'll figure something out. Hopefully Ravenous can post pics of his set up since its identical to mine.
