Clutch cable broke

[CMartin]

Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to finding parts that fit my hawk 250. Does anyone have a link to ebay for a clutch cable that will work on a 2015 hawk 250.

Thanks in advance

Or I can supply colored cables from china

I pieced together a kit like this for my Roketa, since i already had the master cylinder from another project...once you do this you will never look back.... trust me... https://www.ebay.com/itm/7-8-Motorcy...JT9iuk9eODosRQ

I have never used a hydraulic clutch lever before, what are the advantages over standard clutch lever that comes on the bikes?

How would you rate the quality and durability of the unit that you linked?

Way smoother and i find the lever pull easier, because i also have heavy duty clutch springs...my master cylinder is originaly from a John Deere ATC gator...LOL and the cylinder and hose came from ebay... so far so good... i uave had ebay hoses on my bike for 5 yrs now... i also found out that my adjustable levers that i bought on a whim for hydro setups also fit....LOL

Just so I understand, when you mean master cylinder your talking about the master cylinder for the brakes right?
What made you put on that master cylinder in the first place?
What bike do you have, and why did you put in heavier clutch springs?

Master cylinder is for the clutch, since it got swapped to hydro. Heavy clutch springs is because i am a 6'2" 280# fatarse that otherwise seems to overheat and weaken clutch springs...LOL bike is a 2007 Roketa DB07A converted to supermoto and has a dr650 fuel tank swapped onto it...

Advantages of hydraulic clutches - consistent clutch engagement (self adjusting) and generally lower maintenance (requires bleeding like a brake system every year or two).

Disadvantages - cannot be bodge repaired like a cable when it fails and a little more expensive compared to a cable setup

I have a complete hydro setup saved on Aliexpress to eventually put on my Hawk, and the rough cost is about $50. I prefer hydraulic clutch setups.

Comparitively, a new clutch cable might cost $10-20.

If you ever get it please do a review and post the links.

Now u am wondering about hydro breaks? I have seen them on some mountain bikes.
