Tight clutch

[markusj]

My clutch is killing my hand! Does anyone have any ideas as to a softener for the hydraulic clutch handle? I am a novice to the Spyder but have been riding and racing a variety of ATV's for 18 years.
Thanks Mark :shocked:

You might want to try an adjustable after market clutch handle, e.g. Pazzo. The handle can be set closer to handlebar and it does seem to me to require very little effort.

You can buy them on ebay or http://motosplus.com/khxc/ccp0-display/splash.html.

I love mine, mostly because I have small hands and used 1st setting-closest to handlebar.

I bought mine from motosplus in a group buy and because they have a better color choices and great service. Be sure and get the long version, short version doesn't work well on the spyder.

Ken at Evoluzion has a kit that is supposed to make it easier to pull the lever with a more progressive engagement.

You may have a problem. Most people don't realize the clutch is vacuum assisted to make it easier to pull. nojoke

Maybe the next time you're in for service have them check it out.

BTW I have the adjustable clutch handle a it works great.

+1 on you may have a problem with your clutch. You are a person who has experiecne with how hard a clutch should be to pull. Have it checked out by your dealer. Besides the aftermarket lever, here is a link to Ken's http://www.evoluzione.net/evo-cycle.htm low effort slave cylinder. Have you checked the fluid level in your clutch master cylinder? Good Luck :thumbup:
