    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...

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.

clutch cable clip/holder part number

Hello Folks,

I noticed that my clutch cable is catching the mechanism that opens the butterfly valves and wearing the rubber a bit. Looking at BassCliff's tutorial, I see that his gs850 has a clip on the #1 boot to keep it in place. I've searched for this on the parts diagram and have failed to find it. Can anyone tell me what the part number is or where I might find it? I'm also open to other ideas. Routing the clutch cable to the left of carb #1 is an option, though not very aesthetically pleasing.

Thanks,
Daniel
 
Hi,

I think you're looking for #9.

#9) GUIDE, CLUTCH CABLE part# 58621-45100

I know, this is from the 850 fiche, but that part should work for you too.

EDIT: Oops, it looks like that part is NLA. But get yourself some heavy wire and bend up a thing-a-ma-jig that will hold your clutch cable. ;)


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

I think you posted at the same time I was editing my previous post. That part is NLA but I'm sure you can find some heavy wire and make one for yourself.


Thank you for your indulgence,

A wire coat hanger is about the right diameter wire to do the job and usually laying around the house.
 
The coat hanger came to mind, but I worried that the diameter might be too large for between the intake boot and the bolt. I'll give it a go when I get home.

found these guys at the home depot, look like the right size. I'll install and see how it works. No news can be interpreted as them having worked. As usual, thanks for your input.
