sorry, I am assuming earthing means grounding?
If you are looking for all the grounds, I would bet money they are in the electrical section of the repair manual, which details the entire wiring harness.

 

Just replaced the wire harness in my F3. The only place I screwed any wire directly to the frame was by the r/r on the right tail.

 

Cheers for guys i will have a look at my repair manual and try to work out the grounding, think there must be some ground near the front wiring maybe jst where the front bracket connects to the frame

 

there may have been one on the right side of the fairing stay, near where the fuses hooked up... i think i remember having a ground there. (screwed into the fairing stay)

 

It doesn't matter WHERE you're grounding (earthing), so long as it's to a bare metal part of the frame. It's all the same. Did you have the frame repainted? If you did, and you're attempting to ground by just flattening a wire under a screw, that won't work. Get some sandpaper, and scuff down the are where the wire will be grounded, to ensure metal-on-metal contact. If this is what you are doing, then it's not your problem, and you need to troubleshoot somewhere else.
