    I fitted a new OEM clutch cable about 5 months ago and while on a 2000km ride in some very remote areas discovered it fraying at the lever. Managed to nurse it home while kicking myself that I had forgotten a spare I had. I want to replace it with a stronger and longer cable - who sells the best? My other alternative is to have a few made up by cable maker guys.

    Since we're on the subject of clutch cables, how does the longer than stock cables route?

    My bike has it on the outside of the radiator but I bought the bike used so I'm unsure of the routing.

    I bought the Motosportz cable and have emailed them and started a thread in the Motosportz forum with no response.

    I have and am using the motosportz cable, no issues. My routing is on the back side of radiator, coming up in front of tank.

    I believe the Motosportz one is made by motion pro for them and its a good one! 2" longer and much better over all product!

    Hi Dom --Cable Guy in SA makes them up --just take your old one and ask that they make a new one 50mm longer. They also put in a thicker inner cable and stronger casing for it. Paid about R170.00 --Same day service ---

    my clutch cable has gone. i cant get the barrett cable here but can get the motion pro 10-0123. does anyone know if this cable is the same length as the oem cable or longer? i cant find the info anywhere.

    cheers

    edit: pretty sure from googling its the same length as the oem cable. i have a scotts damper which lifts the bar about an inch. not sure if the standard length will be long enough.
