Need HELP "Clutch Cable"
I am helping out a buddy of mine with installing 16" Apes from Burley and a Burley cable kit. I am having trouble with the Clutch Cable feeling like it is draging and hard to pull. I have talked to Burley about this and was sent a new cable that dose the same thing. I have made sure that it is lubed and no sharp bends in it. The ball and ramp in the side cover is assembled the same way as Stock. Any help????

Lube, Lube, Lube it. My cable (also a Burly kit) was dry and grabby. I cut a corner out of a ziploc bag, put the lever end of the cable (after removing it from the lever perch) in the bag, and sealed it with tape. put a couple of tablespoons of motor oil in the bag and let it work its way down the cable. Works like a champ.
