Forward & Reverse Transmission Shifter Cable Set (Honda Pilot FL400R)
Restore crisp, positive, and dependable gear engagement to your machine with our premium Transmission Shifter Cable Set for the 1989–1990 Honda Pilot FL400R. Over decades of off-road use, original shifter cables accumulate grit, suffer inner strand fraying, and stretch significantly under heavy lever pressure. Stiff, stretched, or binding cables make shifting between forward, neutral, and reverse difficult—often leading to partial gear engagement, stripped shifter dog teeth, or sudden cable snap on the trail.
This dedicated set replaces both forward and reverse linkage cables simultaneously, ensuring balanced tension and smooth selector lever action. We offer three distinct grades to match your build: rare Genuine Honda OEM New Old Stock for purist factory restorations, our rugged Made in USA Custom Heavy-Duty option built to withstand extreme race and dune conditions, and our ready-to-ship Aftermarket Stock replacements for quick trail repairs.
