That one is bolted to the back of the engine crankcase on mine.

Mine has a separate short one from engine earth to footrest mounting bolts

This is 93 loom. You can see the front earth above 36 that goes to rectified mount. End of loom earth goes to under battery box frame mount with tube retainer clip 26
Earth 52 lead goes from engine to footrest hanger bolt on rear with a nut on back of lug.
