You’re ace mate, I’ve been working solidly on my DR650 1994 for two months now, and only a couple days away from being on the road again. Been a massive job stripping it down, finding the right parts and remembering how it all goes back together, between you, Dellboy and Ari as RUclips tutorials I couldn’t have done the job so well, thanks heaps. Fellow DRrider.
that cable luber worked well. great video
Thanks for the video. I'm going to do this on my DR.
Thank you for all your videos, makes daunting tasks like the bearing replacement, fork maintenance and much else less scary.
My pleasure mate! :-)
Nice, I'm going to have to get an oiler like that. Pretty cool, never seen one before. Thanks for the vid!
I've always wondered how those bloody things worked! Cheers!.
+billy4rocks My pleasure mate! :-)
I've never gotten around to cleaning and lubing my cables, but you make it seem like a pretty straight forward job. Maybe I'll have to get off my ass and knock that out. As always, appreciate the videos, Mark!
+dustysquito Thanks mate and good Onya! :-)
Hi Mark, i looked into the Dr650 clutch pull and guys are using drz400 clutch actuators down on the motor the drz400 ones are a bit longer to improve the leverage ratio which would make it a bit lighter. Cheers Glen,
Great demo, Mark 👍
Mark great video. Make sure you lock the cable adjuster with the 10 mm nut that is on the other end of the spline. I saw it there but you didn't show you locking it down in the video. Also that oiler needs to be used on your throttle cables.
+Luzianna Long Thanks heaps mate... nice pickup :-)
I like it . Seen some of those guy's crossing the continent and such (professionals ?) , run an extra cable along side for the inevitable breakage . A tie rap here and there along with a spare leaver in the kit . Seams like a good idea done before the big ride , or something to think about on the long ride when you could be enjoying the trip ; - ) Thanks

shannon james .. extra cable and lever.. a must.. replace before bad and use as back ups.... Great message, thank you Robert Jr NJ here Asbury Park and the pine barrens, United States and XR 650 owner.
Thanks Mark. I see chain lube works for you, that's what I was wondering as in whether it would be too tacky and gum up. I bought some "Honda" chain lube with white graphite which the shop said doesn't go tacky so here goes nothing! Cheers Glenn.
+DR HYME TREBLOC Cool... that Honda lube sounds good! :-)
Good show!
Maybe one day you may like to try a set of the adjustable levers with the different pull length settings.
Be safe!
Great vid mark keep them coming
+Albert heaton Thanks Albert :-)
Good job, we have one from motion pro and it works really good! *T4S*
Sweet that mate.

All new cables on motorcycles from 90s onwards (maybe earlier as suggested) are indeed teflon lined and factory greased.
If yours are sticking, they are WORN and can not be revived. You can oil them but this will be a temporary fix as in time, the oil will glog and gunk up and just make things worse.
All you can do is replace them
Haven't tried one myself but there is a product called a clutch easy puller that attaches to your cable then to the handle. Supposed to make it easier to use the clutch?
+Chris Z Cool Bananas... thanks :-)
I went through all the steps but when it came to tightening the cable again it is not working. I turn and turn but it does not get tighter? PLEASE HELP!!
Those are neat little spotlights, what brand are they?
+FiftyRacer No Brand... off EBay :-)
graphite in cables .
Hello my dear friend. I would like to ask a great favor. I live in Patagonia. Chile. I have a DR 650 SE motorbike and I have to change the starting heating pad for the motorbike. Do you have any video of what you could tell me about? I am infinitely grateful.
Sorry I don't!
You supposed to lub the leaver as well as the nut.
I use inox
