Default Adjustable Clutch Lever ?

I just traded by 15 Ultra Limited Low for a new Road Glide 2 Trike. I hate the fact Harley did away with the hydraulic clutch. I have smaller hands and hate the clutch lever on the trike. I had a clutch lever that had been rebent on my Ultra and worked great for me. I can't remember who I bought that from. Does anyone remember who did those? Any way I see there are several adjustable levers on the market. Wonder peoples opinions on which one is the best. PSR Journey makes ones that seem to work well. Several of the reviews say they are a sloppy fit. Is that true? Also one called 1FNGR they are pricey. But you get what you pay for. I want one that looks as stock as possible. Any others out there. Feed back please..

I have had excellent luck with Oberon. They look very nice and work as advertised.

X2 for Softbrake. It made a difference for me.

Softbrake might have one for the current cable clutch bikes. Might also adjust your cable so the reach isn't so far away

Exactly. A properly adjusted mechanical clutch is superior for our bikes. I wouldn't have a car with a cable clutch, but I absolutely prefer it.

Put a half turn of slack in the cable from the spec adjustment and you'll be able to have the friction zone closer to the bar, which will be more comfortable in parking lots.

I use the Oberon adjustable levers. They are expensive but extremely well made and very easy to adjust while riding or sitting at a light.

I would agree that an H-D cable clutch is superior to an H-D hydraulic clutch. It is no way superior to hydraulic clutches on other brands.

In original box

I’m no longer using these adjustable grips. There for 2014 to 2016 hydraulic clutch Harley baggers. These were on my 2015 Road Glide CVO.
I paid about $260 for these. $120 to your door.
