A great example of why you should keep as many spares as you can to keep your classic in fine fettle. Tonight I randomly noticed this under the deluxe. Why and how it happened I do not know......but luckily I do have a nos spare.   |

at one time a favorite trick used to be running spare cables along side ones on bike clutch,throttle,brake, you never knew when they would snap

In fact, my locating tab was hit and miss on the one that was found to commit suicide this weekend.....you can probably just make out a dab of old glue on the part. The new one I had in my spares luckily has the locater so although it's not in any packaging, it does appear to be a genuine one. |

I blame the ham fisted spanner monkey who over tightened the clamp screw.  (I'll get my coat......😀) |
