Default Clutch Cable

I was going through the simple task of putting new levers on my 07 wide glide and after installation it does not appear the clutch is releasing. Now the bike wont start unless its in nuetral and none of the gears engage as I shift. I tried adjusting the cable both directions. Any body have any idea what I may have done/be dealing with here?

Don't know about yours, but the international models have a swith in the left houing to ensure that the bike only can be started in neutral or when the lutch lever is engaged. Maybe your switch (if you have one) broke when you put on the new lever?
