RE: Reduced Effort Clutch Kit
I need the same thing for the 87 Softail I have. My wife is learning to ride and the only thing causing a prob is the stiff clutch. I found this item on JP.

That's my Lucy in the picture. We have two mini dachs, and she's the younger of the two. You're right -- they think they're people, and probably smarter than most!

RE: Reduced Effort Clutch Kit
Was looking thru the old posts & came across this thread...
I just installed the reduced effort kit (from HD) on my 1999 Road King - Made a big difference.
My dad was giving me grief about 'not being strong enough to pull a lever' when I told him that I got it...Well, he came over about a week later, and now wants me to install the kit on his 2k4 Ultra Classic. Our friend was over @ the same time and he also wants me to put one on his.
Funny thing is, I haven't even installed the clutch spring that came with the kit (only did the ramp)...Not sure that it will make any more difference or not.
I seem to recall the clutch spring being just a bit too big to swap thru the derby cover - and I haven't felt like taking the outer primary cover off...So - I dunno if I'll do it or not. Seems fine the way it is
As mentioned it one of the previous posts, make sure you have a good set of 'spring clip' pliers - they will make the job WAY easier than without.
Also - if you get a 'ramp kit' from a manufacturer other than HD, make sure you get the side cover gasket...

RE: Reduced Effort Clutch Kit
I did an EX Clutch on my 03 Train and put the actual HD Reduced Effort Kit on the 03 Heritage.
The Heritage is smoother and easier than my Train. I don't have a problem with the EZ and the wife rides the Heritage, and she's VERY happy with the HD Reduced Effort Kit.
