Ok, so me and the lady trided going riding yesturday. About 10 minutes into the ride, i realized the clutch cable is about 1 strand from snapping completely. Since i don;t really care to spend alot of dough on a hydralic clutch, i am just coing to put in a new cable. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the new Motion Pro "Terminator" cable? I have no problem spending the extra 10 bucks for the terminator, but IS IT WORTH IT? Someone must have one of these cables. Some insight please. Thanks.

I used to run a terminator b4 i got my Hydraulic kit. It seemed to last longer then the stock honda, but i also used a cable luber with the new acble, and that helps also. But i dont know if it makes a HUGE differance

ide say the best cable luber to use, is what the actually sell with the cable luber. It seemed to work good for me, and if buy a can of it, it lasts a LOOOONG time

Go with the OEM Honda its about the best and even better for the money.

Buy two Honda cables, cable luber, and the slickest crap in a spray can you can find, and keep the cable lubed. From then on you shouldn't have to buy anything else for your clutch cable, for a very long time
