That looks just like the one my Harley mechanic ordered for me today... about the same price (he was a little cheaper since he sells to me at cost)

Its supposed to be installed on Wednesday, and if all goes well I will let ya know how it feels (and exactly which one it is)

Thank you all for your help!

Got it installed today...
Still not 100% sure which one it is - it came out of the "fat book" he keeps on his counter.
All it says on the receipt is "Easy Clutch XL"

Riding it home I could tell immediately that the pull was quite a bit lighter (too light for me, but its not my bike).
I also noticed that the clutch was smoother - less "grabby" and it was MUCH easier to find neutral. (but those 2 could have just been a matter of adjustment for all I know)

I will find out this weekend how SHE likes it. If momma likes it then all is right in the world.

Sorry, but that is way above my level of knowledge.

I feel like such a girly-man on these forums... I have been a professional mechanic for over 25 years and own my own shop - but when it comes time to wrench on the bike it goes straight to the shop.
I choose to think of it as "with age comes wisdom".
