            The 650 cable is different from the others, did the end that fits into the clutch arm just come unscrewed? There should be a screw that goes through the arm into the end of the cable.

                        It's very possible the cable broke inside the sheath. If everything else checks out consider replacing that part since they are only about $20;

                                        Oops, that's the speedometer cable.
