    80' GS450L Clutch issues

    So I received this bike as a gift from a friend. Just got it running decently, finally idles without the choke. When I received it, It had a broken clutch cable. What might cause a clutch cable to break besides age and wear on the cable? I took the cable housing off and threaded a piece of cable through it and re-installed it, as hard as I could pull, I still couldn't disengage the clutch.Could the springs be too tight on the clutch ass.? There is a little bit of slack before it gets to the rod, but as soon as it does there's no movement after. Shifts fine when not running. This is my first bike and I've been chewing my local parts guy's ear off, so any help I can get on here will be extremely appreciated.
