Depending on what size you're going I'd try just moving the stock one around. I went to 16" and I routed the clutch cable on the right down tube vs the left and it worked out. Then all you have to do is unbolt the lever with housing from the apes, which you are already doing. I played with different routes till I found one that me happy.

From an older post:
Did a clutch cable swap last week. Due to the Easy pull clutch kit I had to take out the snap ring with a pair of snap ring pliers:
When installing the new clutch cable into the cover be careful not to damage the threads in the clutch release cover. Here's how I managed to get in the clutch cable without any problems:
1. I hung the clutch cable from the ceiling in my garage using a string
2. Sat underneath it with the clutch release cover between my knees
3. Grabbed the threaded end of the clutch cable, inserted the cable end into the threaded hole and positioned the cable in line with the cover
4. Once the two threaded parts get together, I first slowly turned the cable counter clockwise until I felt the threads falling together
5. From that point I slowly turned the cable's threaded end clockwise. When you don't feel any resistance you're OK!
