5. Install Wheel Drive Cable
1. Place the cable bracket (R, Fig.
2-4) on the handlebar support (A)
as shown.
2. Attach the cable bracket using a
1/4"-20 X 1-1/4" hex hd. screw (S,
Fig. 2-4) and l/4"-20 hex locknut
(T). Tighten securely.
3. Unwrap the forward clutch cable
(U, Fig. 2-4) from around the en­
gine and slide the thin cable wire
into the slot in the cable bracket.
Push the cable connector (V, Fig.
2-4) up through the hole in the
bracket until the groove in the con­
nector snaps into place on the
bracket.
4. Insert the #10-24 x 2" slotted hd.
screw (W, Fig. 2-5) into the cable
spring (X).
5. Thread the screw (W) into the
cable adjuster (Y).
6. Hook the cable spring (X) into
the “V”-shaped bend in the for­
ward clutch bail (Z, Fig. 2-6).
7. Lift and hold the forward clutch bail
against the handlebar. See Fig. 2-7.
8. Measure the distance between
the coils of the cable spring (Fig.

imately 1-7/8”. If the length is in­
correct, you will have to make an
adjustment to the cable tension as
described in “Checking and Ad­
justing Belt Tension” on Page 28.
