Lubrication for a "Honda" clutch cable?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Bryanj:
They do, but having bought TSK from Hi-Level they are not the same quality as genuine Honda, especially throttle ones but needs must at times

mattsz:
Thanks for the interesting info, guys!

The only writing on the outer covering is ""MADE IN JAPAN," in just one spot.

Ok, so it's not a "genuine" Honda cable (Bryan, are you basing your statement on the "KK" label?), but it fits, and it's what I have, so I'll lubricate it and continue to troubleshoot the stiff clutch action.

Actually, the cable I removed doesn't appear to have any lining on it, either:

Nurse Julie:
Matt, have you removed the clutch actuator components and given them a good scrub and re grease?

Not yet.  ;)

When I first removed the "clutch cover" (http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,17461.msg158117.html#msg158117), I discovered how much corrosion had found its way in, and the disconnected cable wouldn't budge.  So I cleaned it up corrosion and got a "new" cable, hoping that would solve it.

I imagine that I'll be inspecting the actuator bits soon.  I've got a separate thread going for this issue (http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,22645.0.html)...

Bryanj:
Its not Honda cos the bag its in would look different and have a red and white lable with the Honda name and part number, im not saying it isnt identical to a genuine one just that it isnt.
Honda ones also tend to have numbers along the outer, but necessarily the part number
