Default 1990 flu battery cable routing

Do the battery cables go under the oil tank, like the rest of the wires? I cant remember, and I didnt pics of this when I took the bike apart

Do the cables go through here, where my pointer is?

Oil tank and battery box

Good question! I've modified my 1990 bike, so can't confirm. Are there no pics in the FSM?!

I feel bad because I was just in there, working on those very cables! But I moved my battery and didn't take note of their original routing.

No, no pics in the book. I think i have a good path, just tricky keeping things away from edges, and the rear wheel
