TTR600RE Clutch cable same as XT600???

Coz there is a limited choice of supplies for the TTR does anyone know if the clutch cable is the same as the XT600E early 90's ????
They do look similar (with the 90 deg bend at the engine casing) an I've been told the motor is basically the same :confused1:

I think it may be different to the XT, you should be able to get one from any yamaha dealer. In my experience genuine parts fit, last well and are not always expensive.

I needed a new clutch cable for my TTR600RE, Yamaha quoted £48,00 which I thought was expensive and somebody on here kindly gave me a link to Venhill I was impressed with the service £10 plus p&p & VAT to replace your inner cable and £21.00 plus p&p & VAT to replace inner and outer if you send your broken one.

They get my recommendation.

Exactly, Ive always paid about £15-18 pounds for clutch cables, my clutch felt really smooth and easy afterwards, money well spent.
It always pays to ask the guys on here.

Bump...:-)

Anyone know if a clutch cable from a XT600E (maybe 1990-1995) will fit a TT600RE?

Wemoto.com has a clutch cable for a XT600E 1991-1994 listed, but not for aTT600RE...

Ttr600re

Struggling to find a clutch cable (with sleeves and elbows) for a 2004 Yamaha TTR600RE. Wonder if anyone has any bright ideas ? (I know this chat happened years ago but this seems my best shot at the moment)..

OEM were a pain to locate for my TTR, but i found some on eBay.

Other than that, Slinky Glide produce throttle/clutch cables with outer sleeves. I got one for my TTR and it looks OK.
