    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

A bit of good luck.....

I headed out the door all geared up to ride the 1100 to work Monday...pulled on the clutch lever and the cable snapped...good luck because I was at home in the driveway.:D

Can this cable be replaced without tank removal? Its full:(
 
that is good luck lol.you should be able to change it without removing the tank. Someone with more insight on this will chime in soon.
 
I think it will be very difficult to attach the cable end to the choke rail without removing the tank - plus the cable is routed along the frame under the tank middle.

With almost 6 gallons of fuel, that full tank weighs around 35-40#. Not too bad a job to remove - easier than trying to work under it I think...

Good luck
 
I removed my tank today to adjust my valves...the tank was full of gas.
 
You're a Marine, you're big and strong, remove the tank.
I do it all the time, and the Marines wouldn't even take me.
 
Mine broke 4 blocks from the cycle shop. Interesting stopping for the red light that caught me. Had to change it in their parking lot.
