Man, good wife. If my girlfriend would get me a billet basket for my birthday I just might marry her.

Hold up the basket and show it to the old lady and say,"what am I supposed to do with this?" Then tell her to install it! Dar

You do need to assemble the clutch on the bike.. It's an easy job

[clintonroberts1]

yea i just disassembled the new one, way less scary than i thought but what about initial adjustment on the cable? mine is almost all the way out cause its so worn

Assemble it first and then worry about adjustment. Don't get ahead of yourself.
