G'day again. Just wanted to pick your brains out there about the easy pull clutch kits. I've got a 95, 1340 evo. Clutch can feel pretty heavy by the end of a ride so i was looking at these kits. Anybody fitted one? How much difference do they make? Are they easy to fit? OR should i just harden up!!!!
hey Wassa, i have a white brothers easy pull in an 01 twinkie, i used to have an SE heavy diapham spring in the clutch and the easy pull made it feel about the same as stock twinkie clutch.
but now i have an S&S clutch with the lightest s&s springs, still with easy pull, feels light.
but a mate i race with has the lightests diaphram HD make, and his clutch is very light, but it slips bad ( he wanted that to happen ) he got around the sliping clutch at higher revs by useing one of those???? Variable pressure gizmose that look a bit like a lock up clutch. it works very sweet for him, but the easy pull works out heaps cheaper.
so we come down to, do you need a heavy clutch spring? or could you get away with a light spring in your clutch? as that would be easier to fit and make your clutch very light,BUT if you have a killer motor the clutch will slip.
Thanks fellas. I was looking at just one of the cheap $15 kits on ebay(US). BKRider sell one that seems pretty straight forward. I guess I'll have a look at the genuine Harley one that you fitted SillySid and see what the difference is for $70 odd bucks..
Krash as far as my engine goes its pretty much stock apart from an S&S carby and slip ons so I wont have to worry about the clutch slipping.
Thanks for the feedback - looks like I will definately fit one of these options. I'll check out the genuine one on Monday.
