Hello all.
Need to replace the clutch cable on my 12 SG. Anyone done it with out removing the exhaust? Thanks.

Yes, I managed to do it on my Electra Glide without removing the exhaust. I even upgraded the throwout bearing while I was at it.

You will need a ball end allen to do it without removing the exhaust.

I just took a regular allen wrench and cut enough off with a dremel tool to get to the lower bolts.... No need to remove your pipes...

Easy-with ball allen. You do want to remove the heat shield.

As others stated I did it as well without removing the exhaust. Also the ball tipped allens really come in handy. Or making a shorty allen tool for the job isn't hard either.
