If you have a Honda dealer near, that has been in business for a while, there should be something there he/she can match up to your broken bits. (*thinking* Honda sport 90)

Old time motorcycle shops usually have the stuff to make you a cable, if you drag your bits along.

Same goes for old time/long time established bicycle shops.

im wondering if one from a crf 50 or 100 would be the same?

XR50 could be a match... btw I thought I needed a clutch cable in my Gio 125 also but after some investigating it turned out the clutch lever coming out of the engine just needed to be lubed... water gets under the clutch cover because there is no gasket. I popped off the cover and sprayed some Viscotene on that shaft on the inside and outside and that did the trick..

if you dont want to wait, the best thing to id is to either take it into the shop like others have said. or remove it and measure it and find one on ebay the same length with the same ends on it.

there"s a fault in the cable.the ball on the end broke off.figured maybe someone would have already had to change one.i own a shop so I will order a few cables on monday.if someone has a direct replacement part # for an aftermarket cable let me know.maybe motion pro......when I find the replacement I will post it.

just google clutch cable for what ever sized pocket bike and it will pull up several places online.. dont think there is really aftermarket cable companys, but allyou need to do is measure it and make sure the cable you order has the correct ends on it

The "problem" is, at least I have found, Chinese made cables are crap. If you tend to break a certain cable (clutch in this case) the time spent finding a reliable replacement is time well spent.

If you gotta have something "now":

My clutch cable came out of a bin @ a Yamaha dealer. It had sat there for years and was part of the beginning inventory the dealer was obliged to purchase.

bought one off ebay for 10$ shipped.now the clutch is very hard to pull.its not the cable.took the case off and it looks like a fault in the case.
