CLUTCH CABLE 68-72 US BAR - DOHERTY UK
UK-made clutch cable for US-bar handlebars, catalog number 60-1993, superseding older numbers 60-0667 and 60-3079.
This is a clutch cable, catalog number 60-1993, listed for US-bar handlebars with a Doherty-type lever end, made in the UK. It's the cable that runs from the clutch lever on the handlebar down to the clutch release mechanism at the gearbox, so pulling the lever takes up the slack and disengages the clutch.

The catalog shows this one tied to 1970 in our records, and it carries forward two older factory numbers, 60-0667 and 60-3079, meaning this same cable was sold under those numbers before being renumbered to 60-1993. If your parts book or an old cable end shows either of those older numbers, this is the same part.
Cable condition matters more than most people think on these - a frayed inner or a kinked outer housing will make the clutch feel heavy or inconsistent even if the lever and gearbox end are fine. Worth checking the routing and the handlebar bend on your bike before ordering, since US-bar and other bar shapes call for different cable lengths and this one is cataloged for US bar only.
