Features & Benefits of the OEM Clutch Cable

You are investing in the exact component designed and extensively tested by the factory engineers.

Key Features (Engineered for Longevity):

• Constructed with high-strength, flexible steel cable to resist stretching and maintain consistent length over the life of the cable.
• The inner casing features a low-friction PTFE lining to ensure maximum cable slide, minimizing lever effort and resisting the corrosion that leads to sticky cables.
• Each cable is manufactured to the precise length and end-fitting specifications (e.g., specific cable lengths like 1614mm, etc.) of the original factory cable, ensuring perfect fitment and proper routing to prevent chafing and binding.
• Equipped with factory-style rubber boots and seals at the lever and actuator end to block out road grime, dirt, and moisture—the primary enemies of cable life.

Performance Benefits (What You Feel):

• Restores the light, consistent lever feel you expect from your Indian, significantly reducing hand fatigue during heavy city or traffic riding.
• Precise Engagement: Eliminates the slop and spongy feel of worn cables, giving you confident, precise clutch engagement every time.
• OEM testing ensures the cable meets the tensile strength requirements to withstand years of use, minimizing the risk of a roadside breakage.
• Maintained Warranty: Using a genuine Polaris/Indian service part ensures compliance with any remaining factory or extended warranty requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why do Indian Motorcycle clutch cables sometimes fail prematurely?

A: Due to the design of the Thunder Stroke engine, the clutch actuator end of the cable is often exposed to road debris, dirt, and water. This environmental exposure, combined with a lack of proper lubrication, can cause corrosion and premature fraying, leading to breakage. Routine inspection and lubrication are key.

Q: Do I need to lubricate this OEM cable?

A: The factory cable utilizes a low-friction inner lining, and the service manual often recommends not lubricating the inner cable itself as lubricants can attract grit. You should, however, lubricate the cable ends (barrel and ferrule) where they connect to the lever and the actuator, and inspect the rubber boots frequently.

Q: How do I know if my clutch cable is failing?

A: Key warning signs include:

1. Stiffness or Heavy Pull: The lever is harder to pull than usual.
2. Rough/Scratchy Feel: You feel internal friction through the lever.
3. Frayed Strands: Visible fraying near the lever or actuator (immediately replace if seen).

Q: Can I install this cable myself?

A: Clutch cable replacement is a common DIY repair. It requires careful routing, precise adjustment of free play at the lever and sometimes removing fairing panels. Refer to your motorcycle's factory service manual for exact instructions and specifications.
