Best way to make clutch lever lighter
My wife wants me to lighten up the clutch lever on her 883C. For now, I have adjusted it to catch closer to the grip, but it is still hard for her after riding all day. So, I've been looking at the "easy clutch" "power clutch" "easyboy" type kits. These things run from $12.99 on Ebay for a no-name to $200 at J&P for a Muller/White Bros.
Anybody used one of the easy clutch kits and have an idea what's best and how well they work?

I installed this on my wife's 883 and she loves it! I would say 50% easier than stock. Takes about 20 minutes tops to install. Oh, and it has been on the bike one full year with zero issues. Good quality billet aluminum.

I already had that one tracking on Ebay. I didn't know about quality, but I think I'll go for it - not a lot of money to risk. If it breaks, maybe I'll lay out the $200 for a Muller.

My wife has arthritis in her hands and I started with the Power Clutch and it helped a lot but still needed more so next I put in a Recluse centrifugal clutch and man that thing works great it has no clutch resistance at all at idle and it just disengages at a stop light, you don't even have to hold in the clutch, just hit the gas when the light changes and it goes.

Unfortunately Rekluse discontinued the centrifugal clutch for Sportsters... only big twins now... EFM makes one for about $700 and Revloc goes for $1000

I got that little extention peice of ebay. Works great. I never had a problem with the stock clutch until I ended up with a nasty work schedule that required lots of long rush hour stop and go traffic, which just killed my wrist, actually got so bad somedays I couldn't even hold a beer in my left hand when i got home. So I put that little bugger on and now stop and go traffic is breeze to handle, and now I can come home and have a beer in one hand and the remote in the other!
