I am mounting a new engine on my bike , its goin smooth and I'm almost done but there is one problem.

The new clutch is differint, there is no screw or screw hole for screwing down the clutch cable and I cannot figure out how to attach it to the engine, attached are pictures.

How do I finish this up? I would like to go for a ride, thanks.

Hobby shops that deal in model airplanes can help you too. Ask for a 1/16" Wheel Collar. They are made to hold the wheels on planes. The clutch cable is 1/16" and the collars will work great. Another thought; why not use the one from your old engine? They're all the same.

I guess I could have used the old clutch arm but I like the looks of the new one better and I knew there was some way to attach it so I might as well find out how to do it.

I wasn't talking about the whole arm...just the cable stop. There must have been one on your original installation...why not use it?

The old clutch arm had a screw on the top, in order to hold the cable in place you just tightened it. There was no separate cable stop.
