It depends on your luck.
There is a metal angle in the cable that is crimped to stop the sleeve being pulled into it when the cable is tensioned. If this holds, the cable lasts. if it fails, you have no clutch. I have never had the crimp fail with an OEM part, but I have had it fail twice with after market parts. One failed after two hundred yards, its replacement lasted almost a month. I ended up buying a second hand cable on e-bay which is still going strong.
