"The earth" tends to be underneath it.

Same with most things on the planet. Wink

If you meant the electrical earth, then any part of your frame will do.

I suppose it has a battery?
Follow the black lead from battery negative terminal - it will be attached to the frame somewhere - this is known as the 'earth'.
When anything is switched on the current flows through the 'device' e.g lights, and back to the battery via frame then earth lead.
A simplification but gives you the idea.

your frame acts as the electrical earth - if ya get a set of indies ya can test them by taking the positive from your battery direct to the positive lead to the bulb and taking the other to the frame. It has to touch the metal though not the paint!! Any bolt that goes into the frame and touches directly to the metal can be used for an earth lead!
