1960 g12 cable part numbers

Post by willowbedone »

Ian. It depends whether you have an adjuster on the clutch handlebar lever or not as it affects the choice of cable.

If you look for your bike part list for numbers you will see for Clutch 026250 = club pt. no. T750 and monobloc carb wants T563 throttle cable. But note what spriddler states. You do need the correct parts the correct cable fits.

Well, I just put the AMC part number (026250) for the clutch cable into the spares scheme, and it does NOT recognise it. I really would like to know how you got to "Clutch 026250 = club pt. no. T750"? Why do the club list it as T750 and not the AMC number?
Oh and it gets better! IF you know that you need T750, though how you get there is unclear, it actually states "CABLE CLUTCH CONTROL- REPLACES T560, T773". Confused??
AND, of course, what handlebars do you have? As stated lever bosses (perches) come with and without adjusters. Then has your monobloc carb got adjusters screwed into the top? Or is the adjuster in-line in the cable? Do you have a standard twist grip?
STANDARD for the clutch would be normal (flat) bars, NO adjusters on lever bosses, adjuster in the gearbox outer cover.
Monobloc, NO carb top screw, just a small ferrule into the top as it has to very quickly get out of the way of the top frame tube, along with an in-line adjuster. That should be on the down run from the twist grip, reachable for both rider and weather (water).
