ABSTRACT:
An adjustable releasable cable fastener device for a motorcycle clutch control cable which permits adjusting cable tension and replacing the control cable without removing the clutch housing cover or draining the oil from the housing. A guide threaded into the clutch housing has a sleeve which will slideably receive a quick disconnect consisting of a receptacle which can in turn receive and hold a tip which is mounted on the end of the control cable. The receptacle is attached to the end of a second terminating cable which extends through the sleeve and is attached at the opposite end to the clutch engagement mechanism. Rotating the sleeve relative to the clutch housing will tighten or loosen tension on the control cable sheath when the control cable is installed or removed. The use of a terminating cable permits the replacement of the control cable without access to the clutch housing to facilitate on the road repairs with no clutch cover removal necessary.
