    Was out on my Daytona 955 tonight for a run up the coast and my effing clutch cable snapped 45 mile into the run. I thought it was feeling a bit odd when I stopped fuel. then it let go.

    I suppose it is 12yrs old. and I got a lift home by the recovery guy which was alright as it pissed it down all the way home LOL

    Replacement cable ordered from Square Deals, bought the Throttle cable set as well.
