boneyardbanshee. Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 I would try lubing it first. I have 3 HD springs and 3 stock on my Barnet setup. Man was it a bitch to pull. Bought a cable luber before a ride last year and it was like butter, just needed lubed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokisbuddy Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Yeah I will try lubing it that makes sense, I sqirted w-d in it but I am sure that didnt help in facr in retrospect I think it was probly a bad idea. That was the only thing I never replaced on the blaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 You don't need to buy a cable luber, although they do make life easier. Take the cable off the bike. Get paper, make it into a "funnel" around the cable, spray WD40. Keep working the cable until the WD drips out the other end. keep going to "flush" it out. Then you're done. If it's more than a few years old...the ends are showing any kind of fray, or it doesn't free up nicely, replace it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 i think the clutch cable should be replaced every 2 years at most. you cant see whats going on inside that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
