Cutch, shift, clutch, shift, cl...SNAP!
 

Snapped the clutch cable at lunch. Carefully got it back to work, clutchless shifting, avoiding redlights, etc.

Luckily my wife tracked on down at a local shop (Dumbass me never bothered ordering a spare) so I'll do the swap in the parking lot after work.

Ordering spare throttle cables and one more clutch cable tonight for the breakdown kit. :)

I had that happen to me several months back, its fun ain't it :cry:

Luckily, I had enough cable sticking out to pull it enough to get into neutral and roll the bike into the parking spot. My biggest fear was being without the bike for like a week or so, none of the dealers seem to have the cables, a small cycle shop in town did, though.

Lucky you, my bike was parked at a store about 30 miles from my house, i had to have the Suzuki shop overnight me one $$$$$ :cry: , luckily for me my wife knows the manager of the store and they have storage buildings along the side of it, and she let me "borrow" one for the night.

You don't even want to know how much it cost to overnight it, but on the bright side, the cable itself was cheap.

Hell the Suzuki dealers around here were saying it would be a week before they had it. I'm going to start getting together my list of conumables (Cables, filters, etc) and buying them little by little so that I don't have to wait for them when they go bad.

i hear you on that one. the lack of available parts kind of pisses me off. if they make it and still sell it in their show room, they should stock parts for it.

Re: Cutch, shift, clutch, shift, cl...SNAP!
 

Dealers can not afford to stock the parts unless you are willing to pay a lot more for their investment. Simple economics rule.

You're lucky! Over here, everything not on the shelf takes a fortnight to come from mainland Spain.
