March 9, 20188 yr Clutch cable info: Outer length = 980mm, inner length = 1090mm nipple centre to centre. Nipples (2) 9.86mm diameter, 9.86mm long. Bye, Peter B.
March 9, 20188 yr Author peterp - if i could walk on water, i'd head straight to NZ and kiss a Kiwi on the forehead. thank you. any by outer length- you mean total end to end (nipple to nipple); inner length- the length of the sleeve?
March 9, 20188 yr Yikes! Forehead kissing is not allowed in NZ, tis only for Orcs and Hobbits' Outer length is the sheath, or casing. The inner length is the multi-strand cable, the inner cable, with a nipple centre to centre of 1090mm. (OK then, the overall cable length) Bye, Peter B.
March 9, 20188 yr Author And just as I expected - tranny full of gasoline from the carburetor. Drained and filled with full synthetic 5w30. Will run a bit and flush a few times over. For some reason though, I tried to fill the Coolant from the top fill cap above the radiator and it will not drain in to the radiator. So now I squeezed in to the cap from the Coolant Reservoir to fill The coolant. Why will the radiator not take any coolant from above?
March 9, 20188 yr So it sucked all the oil out, then pumped it full of petrol ??? Think you need to back to basics.
March 9, 20188 yr Author TO CLARIFY - this is how the previous owner had it hooked up. I just had to find the problem and do the troubleshooting. I'm trying to fix that idiots mistake!
March 9, 20188 yr Author Fixed all the issues created by the previous owner. Pulled the clutch apart re-lubed and roughed up the discs and slapped it back together. Fresh oil and correct size clutch cable thanks to you all! The bike is now running like a raped ape! Now to move on to the electrical with the lights. They quit working. I will chase the wires, and ensure that the radiator fan is working. You are all so wonderful and I really appreciate the help!

Most systems have an air bleed. You could always bleed from the thermostat in the head. I till think it is strange that you have a clutch cable. If you looked at that manual it only showed the hydraulic parts, no clutch arm on the engine either.
March 13, 20188 yr Glad to see that waif of a Fantic in good hands. I had put the ad up over on ADVs Trials forum, that's how I recognized it. If it weren't so far away, I'd buy the 2 YSR50s that the seller had also.
