    New 2018 R owner.

    Absolutely thrilled with this machine, coming from a 2005 SV650 that I loved for several years. Still breaking her in, so I haven't had a chance to REALLY play just yet.

    One thing that is a bit odd to me is the location of the clutch cable running across very near the ignition. It just seems very oddly routed and out of place.

    Does anyone have any ideas for how to make its existence more clean and less noticeable?

    (I would upload a pic of it, but this forum just keeps telling me the photos are too big...)

    several owners have noticed that, kind of a hassle getting the key in the ignition. I kept my SV650, different power range.

    Welcome if I have not already said so. If you have photoshop or similar you can reduce the pictures. Someone on here made a bracket to tidy the cable up I think but could be wrong. Sorry not much help am I.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy.

    Yep. Terrible routing of the clutch cable, in my opinion.
