[JACK STRAW]

i am getting a new clutch cable for the '08 400. the stock one lasted about 200 hrs. should i stay with a honda made cable or motion pro
thanks

I always run motion pro because thats what rockymountain and motosport have.. But in my opinion they are exactly the same.. I think the motion pro is longer though.

Honda 250x cable, can route it outside the headers.

I'm using the Motion Pro cable on one of my bikes and I like it so far. No complaints anyway.

I did what CJM said.

Did this make your clutch lever easier to pull? Mine is stiffer than a 2 peckered billy goat after replacing it like 10hours ago..

the motion pro's are junk in my opinion. after 2 years on my 400ex, my motion pro needed replaced. stock oem clutch cable is a good solid cable.

Ive always replaced with motion pro, easy and inexpensive.

Honda quality is great, I do think they seize and crack slightly easier then the motion pro does. " but I have no real proof to back that up ". Other then all my stock honda cables have broke and been replaced with motion pro and havent broke again yet.

The 250x cable is a great idea and I have seen it many times in person, just another good option thats out there.

It felt like any new lubed cable to me.. I also had some left over audio technix 80 mil sound deadener and wrapped some around the cable. It's holding up good.

I've tried motion pro and stock and they seem like they last the same amount of time .

I go through 3 cables a year usually.. I just got this 250x cable a few months ago and it's still good though.
