Are the Terry cables worth the extra money vs a stock one? Does it include the clevis, pin and locknut or do I still need to get them seperate?

I think Terry's are cheaper than OEM (and you get stickers for your tool box). The company is called Terry Cable not Terry Cable, Clevis and Nuts. So no.

Other than the sheathing any other differences? Pelican has OEM style for 20.50 and the Terry for 39.50. Any other sources?

I bought a couple Terry products last time I was in Cali and they were cheaper than the OEM. Never rely on web sites for pricing info or in stock listings. Call GPR 1-800-321-5432

I have look at the Terry Cable website
http://www.terrycable.com/

but I found no 914 content (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Is the link above correct?

I put in a Terry clutch cable when mine broke 6 months ago. I believe it was more than OEM; got it from Rich at HPH.

A couple of Terry Cable drawbacks. 1. No sheathing in the tunnel tubes. They will eventually wear thru the tube at the bends. Also causes wear on the cable and sticky cable movement as it wears the tube. (this wear takes lots of miles but it does wear.) 2. Don't let the clutch cable come close to the exhaust! They seem to melt at a lower temp than stock. The cable locks up when it cools down. Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? Brad Mayeur
