Hi, nice vid and great how-to. To my experience, the stability is further increased when you unfold the single strands of the cable (like a blossom) in the nipple before soldering. This gives you some extra miles....Have a nice weekend..
Respect to the knowledge.. Anyone that believes, like me, that 2 euro`s is expensive for a tiny piece of metal gets my vote.. Haven`t got a Tenere 700 yet! But this data makes buying one less of a guess.. Travel Far Travel Safe..
Hi Vincent, €2 is a bit high for a tiny piece of metal, I agree with you, I think they will be available from different sellers for cheaper. However original Yamaha clutch cable is €€€ in comparison. Also, if you don't want to buy the end/barrels it is possible to make those from scratch. I have older video on the topic where I use that method saving you €2. Also it really would not matter which bike it, it's bike agnostic.
Its funny to see my native language there :D Greetings from czechia ;)
Nice to see a follow up video. Modern repair parts are much nicer than in the day. Your method is excellent, thanks.
Thanks, yep the parts make it not just a fix/repair but a good clutch cable. I'll just carry the parts with me, soldering can be done anywhere.

Yes, that is very good tip indeed. Yes should have spread them a bit more.
Really handy stuff to know. Thank you
Most welcome, glad it’s useful.

Just found the channel. Is the intention to eventually enter a rally race on the T700?
Hey, I have raced last year Dinaric rally with the T700 and in August I’m doing it again 👍
