clutch cable install question
i'm replacing my clutch cable for a longer one because of ape hangers. when i have the new cable on do i have to remove the derby cover and adjust the clutch because of the new cable?

Just installed a new cable yesterday. Didn't open the Derby cover, just replaced the cable. It was a real pain to get the new cable threads started in the clutch release cover (fought it for 1.5 hrs, and the wife got it right away!). Waiting until it's warmer to make final adjustment on new cable.

Yes its a pain getting the cable threaded into the cover without stripping it. No adjustment under the derby cover necessary.
For what its worth I cut an allen wrench down on the short side to fit the bottom bolt so I didn't have to drop the exhaust, only the heat shields.
