I've read a lot of conflicting information on forums about OEM vs Motion Pro quality of clutch cables.
Specifically for GSs, which do you prefer?

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.
I have never, ever heard anything but negative (and usually profane) comments about the MotionPro clutch cables. I'm not sure I'd want one even for a spare, since there's the effort involved in changing the cable out.

I'll buy OEM then. I read a lot online about how the Motion Pro cables were actually superior to the OEM.
That could vary by bike, though. Not all of these forums were for classic Suzukis.

I have a Motion Pro on my bike. The only reason I used it is because it got here first. I've read a lot on this site about how the MP is inferior to OEM.

My 30 yr old original broke last year. I replaced it with a Motion Pro. That lasted two weeks. I, then, got another original. .When I got it, & compared it's quality to the Motion Pro, I was amazed at the difference. It'll probably last another 30 yrs!
Oem.....I purchased a Motion Pro for my1150. it did not have the slack adjusters. The factory cable did mot have slots cut into the skack abjusters to take them off and put onto the new cables.

Motion Pro vs OEM on the Clutch Cable
I bought 2 motion pro's for my "T" during my trip to L.A., Christmas/New Year's 2013/14. I was sorta in a rush and read they don't last long...that's why I bought two. (At least I can get proficient at swapping them out if what they say is true) I'll let you guys know how long the current one lasts.
