    Thank you, I followed your video step by step while replacing my current clutch cable with a braided one, no issues 👍🏻

    My ratchet top cable is a piece of cake. When it dies, I sure have a lot to look forward to!
    Thanks for all the informative vids.

    Thread the cable on before routing it, that way you just spin cable.

    AWESOME VIDEO! Man I really need to test a street bob with 14" ape hangers before I do all this! It would suck to do this then after you dont like the feel.

  • @scotthoult3586

    One key point that you didn't mention is to make sure the new clutch cable adjuster is run all the way up before hooking it up to the ball and ramp mechanism. It will never adjust out correctly if you miss this step.

    Would have loved to see how you unbolt the rear cylinder header exhaust pipe.

    Started to change the clutch cable on a 2002 Softail Heritage. Went to disconnect the exhaust pipe and noticed how rusty the bolts were. Then I decided it would be worth having the dealer do this instead of risking breaking a bolt off in the head.

    followed this exactly and triple checked the ball and ramp, before putting it back together and no matter what I do the clutch lever feels like the brake lever. Am I missing something?

  • @seabass_m
    @seabass_m Před 23 dny

    can i keep the clutch cable on that bars if i just need to replace the o ring from where the side cover and cable meet? will i need to loosen the clutch cable beforehand?

  • @Jack-mw7dz
    @Jack-mw7dz Před 2 lety

    Can anyone help me I have a 1990 fxrs, bike will lunge when I put it in gear. I have adjusted the clutch and cable and it is less but still lunges. Do you think the cable is bad and how to test the cable. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

    What do you do if if you go to install an extended cable and the tread seems to be off and not able to screw it in to the clutch plate ?

  • @michaelgilmore977
    @michaelgilmore977 Před 12 dny

    What spray is that you’re using to clean it?

  • @Marksman2oo7
    @Marksman2oo7 Před 4 lety +1

    so you want the mating surface of the clutch gasket dry? is that why you sprayed brake cleaner into the clutch?

    • @jpcycles
      @jpcycles  Před 4 lety

      I don't like having oil on the gasket surfaces.

  • @andyvanorden115

    Is there a special "trick" for screwing the cable into the transmission cover? I've been turning this for hours and it will not thread

    • @jpcycles
      @jpcycles  Před 4 lety +1

      it's fine thread and can be tricky. Sometimes it's easier to hold the cable upright and turn the trans cover on top of it.

    • @andyvanorden115
      @andyvanorden115 Před 4 lety +2

      Ultimately I needed to use a tap and dye set to clean the threads up. Then it went on smoothly.

  • @seanmoses1876
    @seanmoses1876 Před 3 lety +1

    Why do shops charge 800 for this? After watching this video I'm ordering the cable and doing it myself

    • @blwnova4155

      Imagine that doing that on the side of the road! They really could have designed it much better than that

      If you are swapping bars to a taller set needs to be done.

  • @azdesertnews7563
    @azdesertnews7563 Před 5 lety +1

    What type of lube is that? Pink? Not flushing the old pink crap out ? Using brake clean and mixing it with old lube? I see, Redline!

  • @Lymanization
    @Lymanization Před 2 lety

    Apparently brake cleaner fluid is good gasket and trans look? Lol

    Great video, despite the loud, annoying music. Perhaps just have something decent, on low volume the entire time, for ambiance?

    @xXTECHxKNIGHTXx Před 2 lety

    This has got to be the dumbest design for a clutch cable system, if this shit breaks on the road, you're fucked. Happened to me out on a ride, we were able to patch it back together at the lever, but even if I did have a spare cable with me I'd still be up shit creek.
