I just replaced my clutch cable and bought a Magnum cable. It did not come with a boot. As I watched a video on Youtube someone mentioned this and said that they make the adjustment linkage so you do not need a boot any longer. Does anyone know if this is true?

 

I guess can disregard, got in touch with their c/s and they do not need boot on their adjusters.

 

I always thought the boot kept the street crud out, I admit sometimes they are are a PIA and crack on the end but served a purpose.

 

What's the problem, it's available as a geniune H-D part, "#38630-88, BOOT, CLUTCH CABLE", for a few dollars. For future reference you can check stuff like this on-line here.

 

The problem is I don;t want it on there if it is not necessary, it is a pain in the *** to get over the clip on a Magnum cable. As it turns out it is not needed on a Magnum clutch cable I wasn't saving any money because I have one. And is this not "on line"?

 

 

new design is water proof and is not needed

 

Mine didn't come with one either, It's not needed but it looked unfinished so I used the old one.

 

Think I'll try spray plasti dip on mine . Only needed to adjust once in 26k so shouldn't be a big problem removing and re-spraying it.
