awsome ride.

whats causing the cable to fray?

is it because the adjuster slot is lined up with the adjuster lock slot?

Dunno. Its all lined up and moves freely.

I had that cable specially ordered from the UK, the CCM boys swear its the best cable for the rotax engine so I went for it. Didnt work for me obviously, and the company coulnt explain it either and sent me a full refund.

No issues with my previous cable (different make)

The new cable I just ordered from ATK in Utah this time.

I ll be routing backup cable from now on, even with new cables.

Just got back from riding about half of this route- great ride, I'll post later.

But.

For those of you to whom Kato sent tracks, but aware there's a gap in the tracks in Big Bear that will leave you stranded here, off Crab Flat:

What, I actually have to READ?

Make an EFFORT?

Pay ATTENTION?

Pfft. Merde.

Got as far as Crabs- actually went through that section, on down for a while, then turned around and came back up.

GREAT ride- wish I had enough time to do more.

I'll do an RR on the Rue de Kato tomorrow. Ish.

Kato, make sure the end of the clutch cable rotates freely in the lever as you pull it. If it doesn't it will break like that .
