Clutch cable

[Tigertriple]

Can anyone tell me if the clutch cable for a 2002 955 will be compatible with a 2006 year bike. They look similar to me, however I would value another opinion.

Yes

Thanks for the help :D

And where is the best place to get these?  I need to replace mine as well.

Cheers and thanks!

Yes

A Triumph dealer. They're quite cheap so IMO it's not really worth the time hunting high and low to save a quid.

Triumph sell them for £29.00 which I don't think is cheap, but I have not bought a clutch cable in the last 30 years  

The reason that I am looking for one is I will be taking the tank of next week to do some spannering and want to fit a spare cable along side in case mine breaks. This will save a lot of hassle in changing the cable if it breaks while I'm away touring this Summer.

I was asking in my original post about a 2002 cable fitting a 2006 bike as there are a couple of them for sale from a breakers for £15.00. However I have decided to buy a new cable and use my existing one as the spare. Much less chance of a new one breaking and at least I know what the condition of my existing cable is like.

Thanks to all who commented :D

there was a recall on clutch cables in 2003 as the early ones broke. the stainless steel wire used was not that stainless :lol:

Ive never used the guys, but Triumph Online do em for £15.

When I got my bike last year, previous owner had a spare clutch and throttle cable zip tied in place to the current cables just in case. After a few thousand miles I fitted both the spares and kept the old ones as emergency items too.

I have used them for a clutch cable. Get one from your Triumph dealer, it will fit properly. That's what I did in the end.
