New clutch cable?
« on: 27 August 2017, 07:30:04 pm »



Ok folks, so what do you think...is it time I unwrapped my replacement clutch cable, or can I get another few yards out of this one?  :rolleyes
Actually, I think I was lucky to get home today!  :eek

Which replacement did you get? One of the aftermarket cables is probably worse out of the packet then your current cable. After going through two different ones, I got a second hand OEM cable from a breaker yard.
