Milwaukee 2018 Street Bob Clutch cable adjustment

Beware !
The yellow housing is actually two pcs. The (taller) lower section is thin and flimsy where the two pcs. join.
Sure enough mine was cracked from the showroom but cable still working. Since I was changing handlebars I replaced the upper cable with a longer one.
The yellow connector is included with 2018 HD upper clutch cables.
The new modular upper clutch cable with compensating spring is clever but the plastic connector won't stand the test of time in my opinion.

Just moving cable to front of bars
no worries, figured it out
just in case if anyone else is wondering.. following is how you do it. apologies for the wrong terminologies in advance.
1. undo the leaver from the handle bar.
2. pull cable slightly and un-hook from the lever.
3. pull white plastic cylinder from the lever and free the top of clutch cable
4. lift up the cover for the self adjusting bit (you will see yellow internal with red button.)
5. gently push the red button out from the back of the botton.
6. lift up the little brass tab upwards from the inside of the yellow internal bit..
7. gently crack and separate top of yellow bit (its made out of 2 pieces)
8. you will be able to push the cable down and un-hook 2 cables away from each other.
Hope this makes sense and is helpful for someone out there

I’m not at my computer right now but after you loosen the cable at the yellow thingy google the video how to remove the Harley Davidson clutch cable.

To disassemble: Pop out the red lock. Compress the adjuster to introduce free play. At the bottom, with a small screwdriver, there's a small metal tab that holds ball in a socket. Flip up the tab. Then pop the ball at the end of the cable out of the retainer. This separates the two half's. Assembly is the reverse.
