I broke a clutch cable in Virginial Beach a couple of months ago when going to 
Manassas in the Baja.  Had to change a clutch cable by the side of the road.

AAA a fanbelt, clutch and throttle cables with tools.  That's all you need.

Thanks for the lists, a pulley wasn't on mine. It will be now. 

Also, I remember Dan having a good list. 

So it's an easy enough fix, and worth carrying a spare, but is failure of this 
part common?

There is an unspoken emergency kit that should be carried with you at all 
times. 

1. fire extinguisher 
2. belt 
3. pulley ( yes I have had one just shatter) 
4. shims 
5. woodruff key 
6. fire extinguisher (again) 
7. accelerator cable 
8. clutch cable 
9. flares 
10. cold beer 

Other Vokies can probably add to the list, I am a fairly newbie and still don't 
know all the ins and outs. 

I was told that as soon as the belt brakes or pulley goes out to pull over..no 
ands, if or buts about it. So I have just made that my rule of thumb.
