Default Cable routing?

OK guys I am in the middle of a make over with the streetbob and need a little help. I replaced the handlebars and forgot how the cables were run.

Here's a pic of the way I have them now, which I am sure is wrong because it looks odd. Should I run the clutch cable between the triple tree's and leave the throttle cables where they are?


And here is where I currently am with the project. I need a few more drinks and then back out to the garage to rearrange the ugly stock wiring!

LOL I thought it would be easy! Not really hard it just frustrates the he!! out of ya trying to get the wires through. I think I wrapped and heat shrunk the first side like 3 times to get it right. The Throttle side went a whole lot easier once I got the hang of it plus there are not as many wires to run.

Thanks Pig, I guess I have them like they were when it was stock, just looks a little different now that everything is changed I guess.
