tie the broken end of the old cable to the opposite end of the new cable via masking tape of electric tape then carefully and slowly pull out the old cable while feeding the new one through the same holes, etc. Easy peasy.
Yes, the cable comes with the housing, unlike most bike cables. These clutch cable have both ends one them, which would be hard for the average consumer to make.
thanks for the vid-does the cable come with the housing on it, or is it like wen you buy a bicycle cable and all you get is the cable (housing is the black cable around the wire cable)
Thanks for filling in the gaps .I’m very mechanical, but have never done a clutch cable before. One good tip i might add is to hang the cable before install & soak it with liquid graphite lube overnight. Then hang it from other end & do it again. This Will extend the cable’s life & make it pull very smooth. Nothing worse than a rusty cable seizing in the sleeve…
I have a Honda hornet 600; my cable has just broke. like you say days to wait for the new one, not being a mechanic this video has given me a good idea how to replace my cable. Iam hoping i dont have to remove my tank to do this. But thank very much for the video. it has saved me a bill for Honda services.
Everytime I break/wreck something on my KLR, you have a video showing how to fix it. I appreciate the time you take to do these. I’m not very mechanical, but I’m getting there with this bike, and your help!! THANKS!!
Great as always , thanks again !

Thanks bud. Exactly why I love youtube.
Just what I needed since I lost my clutch cable on the KLR650 today..
It came with the Big Gun exhaust I had on there. The chrome piece was to prevent burning through my pant legs… :-/
I’ve since switched back to stock exhaust due to noise.
What kind of header pipe is that?
