Well we all know this is a common issue. Can somebody post the correct info on it and replacement parts links?

Is BDM the only place to get the cable?

If not can you just purchase a standard issue clutch cable? What length? Suggested brands?

I was thinking of ordering a spare... just in case!

I just bought a spare at the going out of business sale for dc crusiers. I still have it in the bag and will see if it has part numbers on it and what size it is in the am.

I was thinking the same thing and wanted a spare. This one got trashed in a VR fire.


This looks like it may be hard to match, however seeing how its hidden no need for chrome

The handle bar end appears to be larger than a standard HD

I 'am going though my parts to see if I have an HD cable to at least match the ends, Adjust no problem0

hey gas man,if your bike is still under factory warr. and you get the right person @ the dealer,they should cover it under warranty.this is an inherent problem and the factory knows this.i had quite a few covered under warr. for customers!! just an FYI,peace Anthony

Mine isn't under warrenty anymore. Besides... I want a banditt cable not anything from BDM.

But without pulling my cable... what is the lengths? Hoat can you get the measurements off your spare?

How good does the banditt look? As good as the BDM one? That's what I'm concerned with.

go back above and see the pictures:loony:

thats a "banditt" cable with a big dog part number which would lead me to believe that Barnett is making the cables for Big Dog

Like I said above I really like that Magnum Shielding Cable

Yeah I was told that BDM uses barnett to make theirs now. Maybe I'll skip all the added hassle and just order a new one via BDM
