I have been watching and useing your videos for close to two years with a 100% success rate because of your videos working on my own and other Harleys. Two weeks ago I became a certified tech at a local dealership!!! I one hundred and ten percent suggest and recommend your videos on a regular basis to folks that are new to Harleys or to those that are just unsure. I may not have ever been so motivated in career choice had it not been for your videos Rocco. Please don't ever stop making them. There value is unmeasurable they can actually change a person's whole life for the better!!!

Hey Rocco, great video - made things really simple for me. I appreciate the time you took to do this video. Since I have a Buell, this was 99.99999% applicable - cable routing is different and you have to remove the shifter.

Great Video! With this video and my manual, heading to the Groj to repair the leak on my 1989 Sportster! Thanks Rocco!
Let me know how this works out. Ride safe and have a great day.
1989 Whole outer primary has to come off! So I adjusted the clutch and went for a ride. Might squirt some permatex or RTV black on the cable in the meantine....
why do you have to remove primary cover to remove clutch cable? look at video 3.45 Hope this helps.
1989 1989 1989 Sportster. Totally Different setup. Clutch cover is a solid part of the primary. Inspection cover hole is only big enough for clutch screw adjustment. Unfortunately, whole primary cover has to come off. Inner Ramp is secured on the inside of the primary cover/clutch cover with a lock plate and screw. There is also a nut, seal and copper washer on the cable, three more things to go bad! 1989 1989 1989 woohoo fun!! Fortunately, the rest of my life is not this difficult :)
Yes you are right. Ride Safe and have a great day..
Great job on the video. Now I'm ready to go check out that leak. I haven't determined if it's from the fitting or the hose yet, but I don't like the idea of oil seeping out of my primary.
Happy to help. Most likely it will be the cable I've seen it a many times. Any questions just ask. Thank you for watching and your sub Frank. Ride safe and have a great day.
Nks for your knowledge Rocco!! Appreciate ya brother!!!
Happy to help. Any questions just ask. Thank you for watching and all your support K dog. Ride safe and have a great day.
What a lifesaver. Thank you so much!!
Happy to Help, Any questions just ask. Thank you for your Sub Roberto. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Be very careful like Rocco says at 3:55 regarding the Clutch Cable End Coupling. Mine flung into the Primary. A 1 hour steel cable install took a 7 hour day due to this mistake. Rocco, thanks for your dedication to help teach.
Happy to help. Any questions just ask. Be careful that design is weak. Thank you for watching and your comment. Let us know how it works out. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco My primary was stuck in place and I couldn't remove it, so I fished out the Coupling by turning my DriSlide can's plastic nozzle into a hook. All is well, but I'll have to figure out why my primary was stuck on after removing all the bolts, etc.
@@Andrewmylife there is the adjustment on your cam chain tensioner that's how Sportster are set up. You have to loosen the cam chain tensioner on the bottom of your primary cover so you can remove the cover Hope that helps let me know how it works out.
@@TwoWheelRocco I loosend the cam chain adjustment screw, perhaps not enough though. I left the oil seal on the shifter so could that have kept it in place..
@@Andrewmylife chain tensioner needs to be loosened. shifts seal it straight on. Been there done that primary chain will not let it free... loosen more.
saved... need this in a month thanks man
Happy to help, Any question just ask. Thank you for your Sub Pete, Ride Safe and have a great day.

Thank you so much for instructions. Quick question: Do you recommend draining the primary oil before doing this? I am reading in few places where they said we have to do it. Please advise. Cheers!
As long as your motorcycle is straight up and down it will not leak fluid from the primary inspection cover. I would change the fluid it is only a quart. I hope this helps thank you for your sub Kevin. let us know how this works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Your videos are so good.

Thanks alot. Re the adjustment at the lever, my manual says the 1/8" is at the ferrule. and lever bracket. Do you think it matters which ?
Happy to Help, that will not matter.. I usually heavy eighth. Thank you for your Support Ted. Ride Safe and have a great day.
You weren't kidding about being careful using a wrench when tightening primary end of cable. Was just trying to snug it up and the threads on cable snapped off in primary threads. Smh. Brand new cable shot to hell. I'll use more finesse next time.
Love your videos, Rocco.
Happy to help. Yes, you have to be up most careful when threading the clutch cable into your primary I like to hold the cable straight out and start your process like that. Thank you for watching and all your support sgtbox. Ride safe and have a great day.
Also you got to stay away from those China cables they're made of Chineseium😂
Just finished. Put a cable from drag specialties on. Thanks for your help dog.
Happy to Help, Thank you for your Sub. Ride safe and have a great day.
another great video Rocco
Glad you like it. Any questions just ask. Thank you for watching it all your support guy Miller. Ride safe and have a great day.
Thanks brotha, great video.
Happy to help...Have a great day.
Couldn't have done it without you!
Happy to read all went well. Thank you for watching and your sub Pats. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Great video , thanks for posting ! I changed my clutch cable a couple months back and I'm having huge leak problems. My clutch cable won't tighten up in my primary case, I hope it's not stripped. Tomorrow I'm going to put it on the lift and check my threads where you put that thread lock on to see if it helps!
Those cables can be a real problem with oil leaking...Take your time...Let me know how it works out.
Hey Rocco, are you suggesting there's a fair chance I will have a problem with leaking after changing my clutch cable? Thx always
I take back my question as you clearly pointed out the steps that need to be done with skills that requires patience and attention to every detail. Always grateful to you.
Hopefully you read this in time before I redo my cable again this week. When I was screwing lower part of cable in, the threads snapped on me. I see that you had way more pressure on your wrench then I had used on mine. Could it be that since I had an aftermarket cable(from a well known company) that it is just weaker than the stock ones?
You got it...That has happen to me once. Will use HD Parts. It make a difference. Cheap parts, China.
Great video. Thanks for the help.
Happy to help...Ride Safe and have a great day.
Don't forget to put it on the cardboard people ;-) love it! Very easy to follow tutorial.
Yes....Have a Great Day..
Thank you, nice explanation.

longer will not hurt... But how much longer?

Fantastic!!! Thank you!!!
What's the correct size clutch cable for a 2001 xl883 sportster do you have a part number for one? I appreciate any help. I ordered one and it was wrong size the threaded bolt end was smaller in length and a tad rounder. I gave the correct info for my bike. Thanks
What sportster style is yours Custom or Low and are there stock handle bars. The length is important. Thank you for your Sub Melissa, Ride Safe and have a great day. Hope this helps, partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/ronnies/showmodel.asp?Type=13&make=hdmc&a=387&b=18&c=0&d=2001%20XLH%20SPORTSTER%AE%20883%20(CA)%20CLUTCH%20LEVER%20ASSEMBLY
What was that quarter turn back thing u did when screwing the cable back on. Do you not want that screw to be completely tightened?
Happy to help,That's the FreePlay needed when your clutch warms up, clutch plates and friction discs do expand when hot it will self-destruct, very important. And 1/8 play at the clutch handle. Thank you for watching and your Sub Chevy.. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Rocco, I have an older clear steel braided line that has deteriorated and it is itself leaking in various places. Can flex it an watch little oil bubbles appear. Cheap line for sure. It on a 96 chopper, so gotta have that braided look.
Happy to help, Measure it then go on eBay and look up steel braided line. Hope this helps thank you for your sub and watching Yosio. Let us know how it works ou. Ride Safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco Sure it will go well just as soon as I decide to get off a $50 bill. I’m an eBay consumer for sure and I am an O ring specialist due to your help.
@@yoso585 I agree.......Love Tread Sealer.....Thanks for watching..
Hey Rocco I have a 2002 sportster 1200 xlh with straight bars just like yours in the video. Im having issues finding the right clutch cable to replace my current one which is too long and sticks out over the headlight. I ordered one recently off a website and it was to short even though It said it would fit my bike. Do you have any advice it would be greatly appreciated
If you have the short one on the bike and add how many inches you need then total it and order that cable. If you have the long one on your bike minus what you think and then order that size cable. Give your self a little room to work with. That how I do it. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching and your sub Randy. Let us know how this works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Rocco I noticed the center screw you kept turning it in against the push rod and backing out.
Is there a distance or a number of turns you back out before putting in the lock. Thanks
Happy to help. I was just getting a feel for it and then I backed it out. 1/4 turn out. That is what I prefer. Thank you for watching and all your support Tim . Ride safe and have a great day.
If you use Permatex or Loctite 515 flange sealant on the cable threads on the cable and cover (after washing off any oil with carb cleaner) they'll rarely leak. If you want O-rings you can measure the one you have then buy a bag off Ebay etc for small change. (Choose Viton, Buna or similar rings.) The cable O- ring for my 1992 is 1/2" OD, 5/16" ID and 3/16" thick. (I'm doing a clutch cable today so while I'm dodging the heat I figured I'd add to a video or two. I've done many cables on many brands. That ring size should fit all Evo Sporties.
The accordion boot they give you with new cables the "protect" the inline cable adjuster is a moisture trap and the reason I had to replace the cable I"m doing today. Previous owner didn't lube his adjuster threads so the boot trapped humidity and the adjuster rusted into junk. I give my adjuster threads a good coat of clear silicone "tuneup" grease (Permatext, any auto store, get the big tube) instead which helps exclude moisture.
Thank you for your time..Ride Safe and have a great day.
Question Rocco, when turning the screw counter clockwise will it be tight or just a guessaroo? Replacing clutch cable on 2007 HDSPORTSTER 1200 CUSTOM
Happy to help, turn it counterclockwise until it snugs up. Then turn a half turn out. Thank you for all your support Jose. Ride safe and have a great day.
Big help, thanks!
Any questions just ask. Thank you for your Sub. Ride Safe and have a great Day.
Just bought a 1990 sportster. Needs a new cable because it’s stretched out further than you can adjust. My transmission and clutch assembly is a little different than this, but I’m feeling confident about the install now
You will have no problem...Let me know how this works out.
Two Wheel Rocco will do, keep up the good work
Great vid as always, anyway you can do a video on changing sportster fork oil?
Thank you, I will put that on my list....Ride Safe.
Rocco, are you saying that the metal flange piece unscrews from the rubber outer cable? I need to seal that back up and save a cable.
Happy to help. Yes that's what worked in my case, It's worth to try but you do have to take it apart. Let us know how it works out. Thank you for watching and your sub rideSeltzer. Ride safe and have a great day.
need to drain trans oil for that?
need to look at mine, trans oil coming from the clutch cable up at the handle..
If your bike is straight up. It should not leak any oil from derby cover. On the kick stand it will leak. 1 Qt.is what you should have in your primary. Hope this helps, Thank you for your Sub. Any questions just ask. Let us know how this works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Where can i get these o rings ? I bought the Barnett kit, which includes the primary chain gasket. It also includes a couple of o rings, but not this one... can you help me please? Thanks a lot.
You can get this o ring at any auto parts store. Match the o ring and install. Hope this helps. Let us know how it works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Awesome video. all in essence!
Glad you enjoyed it! Any questions just ask. Thank you for your Sub. Ride safe and have a great day.
hiya rocco, dont know if you recall i had a question about adjusting my clutch, your videos are extremely helpful. but i have to report i was still having an issue of every three days having to take out the play in the clutch lever cust the clutch was dragging and i couldnt shift to N at a standstill, I chacked the adjustment one more time to makes sure I was spot on took the play out of the cable and set it to 1/8 inch and rode it... however going down the road no three blocks from my house stopped at stop sign went to shift from first to second gear and the cable appears to have broken as it went all the way to the grip and i could not shift.... so im in the process of removing the cable to determine what length it is to replace, as my bike has 14" apes on it ... ill let ya know more when I see whats going on in there. thanx again Rocco for the information =)
Thank you for the update. Ride Safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco hiya Rocco, update brother, it was the clutch.. the adjustment screw housing looks to have been worn away to the point of breaking and the adjustment screw was just sitting there. So.. off to HD for new clutch 😆👍
@@madcapmagician6018 Sounds like just your Your outer ramp is bad $12 part. Take a look at # 8 hope this helps

Hey I changed out the clutch cable but it is not engaging any ideas
Have a little tiny c clip that came out with the piece that has the ball bearings in it. It is not the one on the back. Not sure if it is life or death, but would like to know to be safe. It's about as big around as a pinky.
That c clip goes on the round disk that your cable attaches to. Place clip on other side of that disk. Hope that helped. Let me know how it works out.. partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/ronnies/showmodel.asp?Type=13&make=hdmc&a=622&b=19&c=0&d=2006%20XL%20SPORTSTER%AE%201200R%20ROADSTER%20(CL)%20CLUTCH%20LEVER%20ASSEMBLY.

Mr. Rocco, The clutch cable from my 2012 Iron 883 just broke from the clutch lever side. Do you recommend any other brand than original Harley Davidson? Here in Australia they ask $99 for it! Any suggestions?

Hey Rocco! is this the same on the 08 Nightster?
Yes it is, Let us know how this works out. Thank you for your support.
Hey Rocco I can not get that fitting tight into the primary case. I made sure my threads were clean and greased up and it will not get snug. Almost feels stripped. Can you help me out on what might have went wrong
If you could send cell number. I will call you
If it is striped you need to use a Heli coil to replace bad treads. This will return it back to original treaded size. Hope this helps. Thank you for your Sub Sam. Let us know how this works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
