Where does this ground wire go

I was doing some tinkering today.....

Put an in- line fuse on the guage lights curcuit. 15 min. job piece of cake.
Then on to my headlight problem which was as follows.

With the lights on low beam and making a turn (with turn signal on) the high beams would activate when the turn signal canceled.
So with the wheel removed and the switch out i see that the problem is the high beam contact needs to be bent back a smidgen as it's so close that any wiggle of the switch would make contact and turn on the high beams. Again piece of cake.
So as i'm puting things back together i have a ground wire that has no home.
where oh where does this wire attach? My camera is dead so i copied a picture
from Mister Bentley. It's the one hanging below the switches. The hole in the end is bigger than the screwheads that hold the plastic suround on and i can't find
any other place to attach it. Anybody know?

the all brown ground attaches to the right lower corner of that large metal hub, using one of the screws that hold the upper/lower plastic covers on.

Thanks John.
The bend in the end of it didn't seem to fit that location well, but it will shortly.
