Small spring on clutch cable
1964 Honda Dream CA95.
Just installed my NOS clutch cable and wondering what the little spring is for?
The original cable did not have a spring, but it had also snapped so the spring could have possibly fallen off at some point.
The bike is running & driving but the clutch cable feels a little sticky when pulled all the way in, you can feel a physical click as its pulled in.
Does anyone have an image of the correct routing for the clutch cable?
Also neutral is hard to find.
Any help would be appreciated.

There is a little return spring that connects to the rotator that the clutch cable connects to under the cover. Perhaps it helps smooth out the release as well as facilitate the return. Also you can twist/ adjust the rotator from memory to affect the amount of purchase it has on pushing the rod through.
