I don't want to jinx anything but I've still got my SS clutch cable from BC after 1 year and 13000 miles so far (I put it on right befire the NE rally last year). It was a little difficult to get it on there but once it was there I had room to adjust it (not much) but I do have the 2-3mm of play as directed in the manual. Mind you, I still carry my stock cable in my saddlebags but the SS cable has served me well.
