Speedo and tech cable routing r60/6

Can anyone take a picture of the correct speedo and cable routings as they transition from below the instrument cluster down into the frame? P.O. took bike apart to repaint but cables are stretched too tight. 76 R60/6. Thanks.
 
I don't have a /6, so can't help much with tachometer cable since you have a physical cable...my /7 has an electronic tach. But the speedo cable needs to route down the center of the tunnel under the tank...at the rear of the tank it turns down to the connection point at the back of the transmission. To get there, I think you can go one of two ways. See the red arrows on the figure...either go over or under the flat brace welded to the frame...I'm assuming you have this brace.
