Lubrication for a "Honda" clutch cable?
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)...

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

Are the coated Honda cables black, as Oddjob says? If so, I'd say that it isn't identical... I'll lubricate it...
