Im an idiot, but At least i have a softer pedal.......

I thought I inspected my cable good enough (d&d cable) but obviously not, i got my new king cobra installed, and the pedal still slacked?

put my stock one on, and problem solved, well at least i dont have no more tob chirp, and have a much softer pedal, it was alot of work, but it was good learning experience, i cut the rubber on the cable and found a mess of streched cable, always replace the cable before you start pulling the t-5, unless you know for sure the pp, or disc is toast.

Im glad to have a new clutch though, it grabs real nice, and is traffic friendly, and easy on my leg

As long as YOU are happy now. WE all learn, thats life. Good job, the new clutch may even help your track times.
