The clutch cable on my 54 KH is about 4 inches too long. I need to shorten it. How do I do it? Which end of the cable do I remove the crimp/solder dealy-bob from? How do I reattach said dealy-bob after shortening?
Surely someone has done this before, and I want to learn from your mistakes, rather than learning from my mistakes. It hurts less that way.
I fired up the 1954 KH on New Years Day. After a 4-year restoration effort, it's almost ready to ride. I need to do a few more things before its Maiden Voyage - like the stupid front brake and clutch cables - yeah, I've been procrastinating, but the day of reckoning is now here. Help me get the clutch under control! Once I'm satisfied the cables are the correct length, I'll try to find cloth-covered cables to replace them with.
I'm dying to go riding - even if it is 40 degrees outside! (OK, after 5 minutes, I'll be dying to get back inside the nice warm house drinking a nice hot cup of coffee, but heck, we gotta keep up our ruff-tuff motorcycle-men images, don't we?).
