Well that little billeted cable connector holding the idle and the throttle cables together was 30 bucks.. I think that was the biggest corn holing ive ever gotten from HD.

Done this twice in the last 3 weeks. They ain't comin' off again for a long time. I am really missing the old external clutch actuator arm from my 4spd Softail.
