After 42 years and 14K miles the clutch cable on my Yammy bit the dust yesterday. I'm assuming that with only 14K miles it was the OE cable... geez.... ain't nuthin' built to last anymore ;^). Amazingly, the cable is still available from Yamaha so one was promptly ordered and is on its way. Am I correct in assuming that the replacement is pretty straight forward after the left side engine cover is removed? Any pitfalls that I should be aware of? After removing the protective booty over the cable I can see that it has been badly frayed for sometime and had been at the point of failure for a good while. I was lucky in that it failed only about two miles from home and I was able to limp back into port in second gear. Thanks in advance for any advice.
