Fat Bob Throttle cable and Return line
Alright so i'm having a problem trying to install a new throttle line on my 08 Fat Bob. Since the ball inside the line disconnected while i was riding but the little cap on the outside is still attached. And I'm struggling to get it off.

Welcome to the HDFORUM.
I hope you continue to enjoy your ride here, as much as you enjoy bikes.
Only as a suggestion, by me as a USER, just like you, create a signature line similar to my one line on my bike information.
The year, model, and all the letters Harley assigned to the bike. It will appear at the bottom of your post.
Doing this will be helpful if you ask a question. All Harleys aren't the same with many changes and variations over the year.
Of course, you can always add it to any thread with a question.
You can also add any other details you choose and a favorite picture that will appear once in your post every page length to the signature lines.
If you like, you can also add a favorite picture for an Avatar you see at the top left of all your posts.
PS…Questions would probably get more comments in the proper area using the dropdown menu under Forums in the menu above.
It’s possible if a Community Team member sees your post, they may move it to a better area.
If they do, only as a suggestion by me, make another new thread back here in the welcome area to say hello and if desired introduce yourself.
Probably here maybe would get you more views.

Add a picture attachment. I am guessing your talking about that little wear reducing brass split cup is still in the lever.
Last two cables I pulled out, they weren't broken and I was just replacing old corroded levers and that cable didn’t want to come out of there were it had worn in and had a swage of aluminum holding it.

@Kev's 08 FatBob I have moved this thread from the Welcome section to the Engine Mechanical Topics section as you will get better responses to your question in this section.
The Welcome section is more for introducing yourself & letting other forum members know what Harley Davidson you own. Please feel free to post a new thread back in the Welcome area to introduce yourself.
