I have an 85 FXRS. It has the tranny with the arm that goes from the side and up around to the top where the cable then hooks to. My question is does anyone know if the newer style side cover and cable assembly will work on the older style tranny. Think they changed it around the late 80's to the newer style I'm not for sure on that. My goal here is that im trying to make my clutch smoother and easier, I have a stiffer spring on my clutch so the lever is hard to pull. Thanks for any info!!
I am aware the mechanism is different inside, My question is if the side cover that bolts to the tranny is the same, So if I could use the newer style side cover with the new style mechanism inside, just on my tranny, I am aware that the cable goes in different and the end will be different to.

Yes it will work, IF you change to a newer style trap door also. You would need to make/buy a trap door puller to change it with out completely disassembling the trans.

Thank you for the info!! Just so I can learn more about this, why dose the trap door have to be updated also?? I have only done service and a throw-out bearing on the tranny so sorta new to this. Thanks I appreciate the help!!
Ok makes sense when seeing them side by side!! So doesn't look like I will need the pin that goes in the top correct?? cuz the tranny side on my old one will not have that????
