Is it hard to put a new clutch cable on? Mine snapped

Depending on when it was last adjusted, maybe not. But I do everytime I take that cover off. I've had it get a little "off" from messing with it.
 
It's possible to do a clutch cable replacement without removing the cover. I had to do it on a bike that had the shift shaft and lever welded together. Just need a long flathead screwdriver and good flashlight. Disconnect the bar end and reach under the cover to grab the cable with the flathead until the metal tang is in view and pry it just enough to get the cable out.

But it really is a good idea to take the side cover off the first time.
