touring clutch cable
I remember not buying a road king in 2014 because it had a clutch cable, I prefer hydraulic.
Me thinks Harley is saving money again on a $30k bike. I do agree that the usability/feel on a cable clutch is not bad and feels pretty smooth, but when I spend big bucks on a bike, I prefer Hydraulic.
The cable looks like **** coming through the fairing, IMO.

Could you tell I dont like fairings?
actually, I prefer a cable on my clutch and throttle. Tbw and hydraulic just doesn't feel right, feels like it's disconnected from the motor

Whether it’s a motorcycle or automotive, a hydraulic clutch has a narrower friction zone. I definitely prefer a cable clutch. Both require maintenance so that’s not an issue but, I can adjust where my friction zone engages with a cable clutch, something that can’t be done with hydraulic.
