Gasket vent hole mod
curious here too. I have a new gasket in hand. Seems I read opening the vent hole 1/16" larger was the answer?
Who can confirm?? What if it's 1/8" larger?

Look at the vent hose on the cover plate. This is what limits the ability for the transmission to vent to the atmosphere. Making the hole in the gasket any larger than the ID of this hose isn't going to do anything. Opening one without the other isn't going to get you anywhere.

I rode several 2018 Softail Models during Demo Days as where the MoCo brought an 18 Wheeler out with many of the 2018 model (including CVOs) One thing I did notice is that on the Softail Models, All of them went back to the ole reliable Clutch Cable. Plus, the clutch pull effort was much easier than on my 2017 Road King.
