all ways to break it and fix it.
there.

The clutch cable causes these problems the cables are plastic lined and bind under pressure inspect where cable enters housing if looks like several paths to travel replace cable with new rachet gear.

You put the spring plate on first (after putting on all the clutch disks) with it being held in the compressed state. Then you insert the snap ring into the grooves in the center of the clutch. Then you can re leave the pressure of the compressed spring plate. The snap ring is used to keep the spring plate under pressure at all times in normal operation.

The clutch cable is fitted to the lever and the clutch arm on the top of the crank case beside the oil cap. Remove old cable (remove side fairing if you need to for access to cable end) slacken the new cable adjusters as much as possible fit to the clucth arm on the engine and fit to its seat route the cable the same as the old one up to the clutch lever, fit the cable end to the lever, hold the cable sleve tight pull the lever to strech the cable and drop into the lever seat, adjust the cable for 2mm of free play at the lever before the cable is pulled

It is called a "Clutch Cable" You just take the old one off and put the new one on. Simples

i think either your clutch cable is seized and needs lubricating , or the pressure plate teeth on clutch plate housing have broken , maybe from sitting for so long or improper fitting years ago , maybe also your clutch plate is siezed against clutch plate disc . but i think one of the first 2 suggestions most likely..

i have seen cases where even after new clutch plate teeth have been broken from un correct adjustment of clutch pedal and cable when fitted , but i think you wont have much luck getting warranty after all that time !

i hope for you replacement of cable is answer .. good luck

Be sure you were given the correct cable, The stock cable is part number 54011. Compair the old cable to the new one.

You've installed two cables, both of which broke. You made mention of a metal part bending, is this the fork? You may need to pull the bell housing to check the operation of the fork, throw-out bearing and pressure plate. This does not sound like a cable problem.
