Featherbed Cable Clip

kernel65 · Jul 16, 2022

Anybody know where NM14490 “Cable clip, rev. counter cable to frame” for the 88ss and 650ss mounts?

My 99 has a 5/16 threaded hole in the bottom yoke right side near where the tach cable naturally wants to route. Can’t seem to find a picture of this clamp in place.

Thanks for any help.

My understanding is that it simply clips onto the front frame downtube thus captivating the cable outer.

Rob,

I did find this listing for what the clip looks like, but the nomenclature sound more like what you describe.

I would confirm with them - but it looks like the picture is wrong.
My understanding is that it should look like this.....

Thanks. Makes sense to me.

Any idea what the threaded hole in the bottom yoke is for?

Working from memory - there was also a wire clip for a cable (speedo/tacho?) that was fixed there.
As I said - only memory!
Cheers

Thanks for clarifying.

Was this an actual wire type or stamped as shown in the link?

Nothing like that photo - it was a bent wire thingy

Perfect.

Thanks Rob.
