Thinking again about the clutch cable and I'm not happy with the reliability of the thing. It's not exactly the best engineering solution to the problem and that irritates me! I think I know exactly what I need, and it seems if I go for the bespoke cable from a proper engineering firm, it's going to cost as much as MNR want (which is something like £54 + VAT) which is a little expensive. I could always go back to ST but I'm not exactly happy with the way he's done things in the past. Needs a little more thought before jumping to any conclusions.
