Re: To Anyone Who Needs A Clutch Slave Arm
Got it on. That and a new cable..big difference!!

Update, took it off, put the stocker back on.
I couldn't get used to the change, shifting seemed slower with the longer range...
Installed mine the other day. Love everything about it. Hope the cable doesn't mind rubbing a bit. Seems like the spring sits a bit higher, can't remember if that is how it normally is. Functions fine.
I knew better but I put a scratch on the clutch cover >:| Should have used the proper C Clip pliers. Bought some black rattle can paint that was recommended for Yamaha engines, filled it in a bit with a tooth pick. Still there but not white anymore
That rubber "boot" on the lower end of the cable, it should slip OVER the outer cable end.
It helps keep water and crap from getting into the cable.
Is it time for a new clutch cable for me? I noticed a few hundred miles after this mod the plastic shielding on the clutch cable where it meets the end of the tube has cracked. Not exactly thrilled about it. Looks like it happened because the cable is being pushed against the metal harder than it was intended for. What do you guys think? Above, did you do the FZ-07 mod?
I was thinking to spend the $10 extra and get another "clutch cable holder" (what points the cable to the clutch slave lever) and bend that with a new cable. Not sure how your going to bend that bracket, it's pretty stout. I'd lean towards notching, bending and re-welding the stock base (bolts to motor) bracket. I kinda doubt if you did the -07 mod, that caused the innerds to crack. I see your also missing the rubber boot (likely rotted and fell off from age)

I'm trying to get a good shot of it. My phone can't adjust to that kind of lighting & trying to hold a flashlight isn't working either. Doesn't want to focus. I'll keep tryinghow 'bout the business end?
