CLUTCH LEVER

Post by TROUBLED OTTER » Wed Aug 18, 2010 2:26 pm

Anyone know a way of making the clutch lever lighter to use?Ive tried re routing it and oiling the cable but was wondering if there was any other way.Ive changed master cylinders on other bikes but that is hydraulic.Are there lighter springs I can put on the clutch?Any help is appreciated. :pray:

Not really..

Have you checked to see if the clutch has had additional springs fitted? It should have 3, might have 4 (my bikes do)

I have dainty wrists but am hardcore 8-) ...so stiff clutches are the shizz..no slippage! :ugeek:

There may be levers available that allow you to tailor the cable pull? That might make it easier..

Aha, i think the 30 clutch is quite light..

you should borrow my 24 with EBC heavy duty springs, you almost need two hands to pull it, doubt it'll ever slip though ;)
