I miss being able to adjust when it catches, I like it to come on right off the grip. The newer bikes I've sat on at the dealership seem to have a lighter pull than my '14. Tues I'm going to change the clutch fluid in mine. I don't miss having to loosen the cable an readjust it to remove the clever for stuff.

The cable clutch set up has been solid over the years. I’ve had a few. Got to be honest my current 2014 bike with hydraulic clutch I like a lot. Been back twice early for recall rebuild but you could almost expect it with something new like that. I don’t miss at all the maintenance required from the cable setup. Time will tell on how the hydraulic setup holds up. I expect it’ll prove to be dependable.

I agree.....
Just like a cable clutch, it still requires maintenance.... you'll need to flush the hydraulic fluid from time to time, will eventually need to rebuild the master cylinder/slave cylinder, and may even need to replace a clutch fluid line once in awhile...
