Breva clutch cable too short?

[cee2cee]

I just purchased a replacement clutch cable for my  2007 Breva 750 from MG Cycle and no matter how I try, I am unable to get it installed.  I pulled the new cable through the frame with the old so I know it is correct, but it is still too short and I cannot install the adjusting nut at the handle.  I read on another thread that the clutch cable for a Nevada is a bit longer and would work.  Any thoughts, suggestions, or war stories about your experience trying to replace your Breva cable?

Here's an experience from doing many, sometimes the spring on back cover to arm will fall down sideways and cause the arm not to be able to have enough slack because arm can't  move forward. Look to see it's there working properly.

I've only done one, but I discovered that the clutch lever arm needs more ass-force applied than I thought it would to get the cable in.
