Question AIM VPC VP68LT clutch question

I am ready to order a VPC clutch part number VP68LT. Description said 40% clutch pull reduction. I already have Burly easyboy, can I use both? Am I going to gain grabbing pressure? I am not sure whether I should get a 68 or the next one up with 20% pull reduction and 20% more grabbing power. BTW I have a SE clutch spring. What do you think? Thanks

You can use the AIM VPC along with the Burly Easyboy and the SE spring. It should all add up to a fairly easy clutch pull in the lower and medium range of RPM's but in the higher RPM band the clutch will be a little bit more difficult to pull in because of the centrifugal force of the VPC. If you were having a clutch slippage issue before you won't have any after correctly installing the VPC.

Thanks OldEnuf2NoBtr. Regardless of easy clutch pull. Does it mean the VP68 light version will still improve clutch engagement and clamping force?
