hopefully its a proper mk1 or2 chopper  remove gear knob/unscrew 2x base screws/unscrew toggle chain and rear fulcrum clip which clamps it to the frame/lift shifter off bike/unscrew phillips screw beneath base which holds cover on/gently gently take table and dayglo slider off/with some pliers pull the outer cable ferrule from the casting/and then cable end will push out--job done. or bring it round my house and ill do it ;D |

She needs a bit of operating on,she rides beautifull just looks as rough as a badgers ass at the moment...  this is the donor bike for bits tis handy for nuts and bolts brakes and gear linkage..  |
