I agree with Deezee regarding the vertical position of CP14, the angle causes the cable to "point upwards" a little on its way to the lever half moon puller.

i now see why it would be better to be vertical, as before i thought there there was meant to be somthing attaching the sheath to cp14.. IVe got the cable fitted now, and will buy a screw nipple/ cable end thing to put on the shortened end then. now all i need before i take it around for a sin on my road is the clutch and throttle cables fitted
