Gets good reviews on a couple other forums I frequent.

changing the fulcrum, may well mean a longer clutch pull length- making adjustment ( which evades many Riders already) even more crucial to ensure clean complete engagement and disengagement

( jeez website wacky again today- I gots cut off)


the current HD easy pull clutch is similar to the "easy boy lite clutch" which is good on evo and early twin cams -( to 2006?) and gives less effort/longer pull for about $30...Burly makes them now.
quick easy install.

It appears on the surface, that all they're doing is replacing a stamped clutch compression ring with an indexed & stronger more precise made unit... not a bad idea really. No idea if it works.

My 07 stock clutch can be pulled in with two fingers, so I cant see how I would have a need for a softer pull. But if one installed the heavy duty SE clutch spring, then maybe its for you.

Its $135.00 - not a cheap price just to experiment with

yea, the '06 and ups I think had the easier pull kit already installed from the factory. My '05 still has a heavier pull on it, this looked like an easier kit to install than the MOCO kit.

I just ordered the Clutch Wiz for my 2000 Road King. It's not a trike so I emailed back and forth regarding the requirement of a heavier clutch spring.
They suggested trying it without the heavier spring since I'm not an aggresive rider.

I'm wondering if anyone on the forum has had success on a 2 wheeler tourer without changing to the heavier spring??? Please chime in if you have any experience because I've done all the searches but not found my answer.

Once I try it I'll post a review but it will probably be a week or so.

It looks similar to another product that has been reviewed on HDF in the past, so there are options.
