I am rebuilding a 1996 Seca II XJ600. Can anyone tell me how to route the clutch cable around the forks? I know... should have taken a picture before I removed the old one... Tell me about it... Any help would be appreciated.

Have you sorted it yet? If not when I get my laptop out this weekend I will take a couple of photo's and post on the forum.

I can only presume the Diversion will be the same as a Seca.

Nope. Haven't figured it out yet. The HAYNES manual is no help. Wish I had taken pics before taking it apart.

Can you find any of the brackets that holds it in place anywhere.

Would it not b ok if you route it your own way making sure it isnt getting fouled on anythin and that it all looks nice and tidyhuh.gif

I currently have it routed so it doesn't interfere with anything, but not sure once i completely reassemble the bike if it will... Attached to the cable sheath is a rubber grommet. I can't seem to figure out where it goes ( I assume through a bracket of some kind but so far I can't locate anything that appears to fit it. Yes, it is an OEM cable...

To clarify, I started the COMPLETE rehab of this bike about six months ago. Unfortunately I was not smart enough to take photos of the disassembly, so I haven't a clue... I am using exploded parts diagrams and the Haynes manual for reassembly. I suppose it is a small thing considering, but I want the bike to be completely correct. Sorry to be such a pain in the butt... :blush:
