Control cable maintenance for your motorcycle is important and without a purpose built tool it's a real pain to do. Being a maker I decided to design a tool that would allow me to seal off the control cable at one end but allow me to attach aerosol lubricant to that end to force lubricant down the control cable.
Design is 4 parts:
Top and bottom were printed in PLA while the two inserts are printed in TPU. @pashworth6 has kindly provided various insert sizes here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4493852
Tested on my Honda Africa Twin clutch cable. Mileage may vary on the bottom flexible grommet, control cables are different thicknesses. If you're not getting a good seal use some electricians tape or a piece of latex glove to improve the seal.
