What is the Armor Coat for on this clutch cable?

The clear Armor Coat is a protective layer over the stainless steel weave. Its main purpose is to prevent the cable from rubbing and scratching your motorcycle's paint and chrome surfaces.

Why would I need a clutch cable that's 6 inches longer than stock?

A longer clutch cable is typically needed when you install taller or wider handlebars on your motorcycle. This extra length allows the cable to reach from the clutch lever to the clutch mechanism without being too tight.

Does this cable come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This product listing is for the clutch cable itself. While it replaces the OEM cable, it's recommended to check the manufacturer's installation instructions or consult a service manual to confirm if any additional hardware or adjustments are needed for your specific installation.

About this part

Product Details

What you get here is a Bikers Choice clutch cable, specifically the Armor Coat model designed for 1986-2008 Harley-Davidson XL models. This cable is 6 inches longer than stock, measuring 60.8 inches total, which is great for custom handlebar setups. It replaces the OEM part number 38621-86A, making it a straightforward swap for many Sportster riders.

This cable is built with an attractive stainless steel weave that's covered in a clear Armor Coat. That coating is there to protect your motorcycle's paint and chrome from getting rubbed or scratched by the cable. Inside, it has a nylon sleeve, which helps ensure smooth operation and a long life for the cable. The fittings are chrome, adding a nice touch to the overall look.

This is a solid option if you're changing out your handlebars and need a bit more length. It's designed to fit a range of Harley-Davidson Sportster models, including the XL1200 Custom and XL883 models from the mid-80s through the late 2000s.
