Default Wire management help

So I have problems with finding the right place for the wire mess. When I bought the bike, the wires were just tucked randomly in between the forks, preventing full lock turns. I opened the connectors and tried to find better place for the harness, but I don't have the slightest idea where to put it.
If someone could be kind enough to tell me where this whole mess is originally located, I would be very grateful

Cheers
Btw The bike doesn't have front fairings. Also I am using standard round headlamp which kinda restricts the space in front. At the moment the wires are resting on top of the headlamp which looks stupid af.

Unfortunately they are designed to fit into the front fairing so in reality you will just try to fit as best you can.
Not sure there are many folks on here that will have removed the fairing, but hopefully the odd one might and can provide a bit of guidance.
On non faired bikes the standard headlamps normally have space within them to locate the wiring, so you might be able to tuck some of the wires in there.
Sorry for the poor picture, but here is an example:

The routing of the wires is actually dependant on the standard headlamp bracket which you don't appear to have fitted.

Back of the bracket is a fitting for the fuse box which also carries a wire guide to hold the harness. This then goes outside the forks to a retaining clip on the bracket next to the headlamp and curves doubs under the rubber skirt of the instrument binnacle where the various sockets fit into retaining holes in the bracket over the headlight.
