Just thought I'd share a tip on how to keep the bonnet release cable in good shape

Recommended Posts

AFAIK this part isn't available anymore, I used to have a *very* stubborn bonnet release cable, was really hard to release etc......then I got a tip on draining in some "Vaseline oil", this I did a few years ago, and the cable is still "easy sliding", I bet it's better then new........

 

You need to disconnect it at the bonnet side, make some sort of arrangement to put the oil in (don't take much oil), and let it drain into the "handlebar side".

 

Just thought I'd share this, as I'm sure I would have broken mine by now if I didn't do this thing - it was *very* hard to open.

 

Cheers!
