I've had several, there's a reason motorcycles have a Hand Clutch and Foot Shift.

^^^^^ Never had one and have never rode one but the above is pretty much exactly what I told my youngest. Gave him **** about embarrassing himself by laying it over in a parking lot or something. Next time we went anywhere I laid my Ultra over in some deep gravel at a J & P’s open house in front of about 20 people. He just helped me pick it up, never said a word.😀
I checked out the LaBriola website and it says they’re moving. It has a phone number, (303-981-5692), they also have a contact form on the site.
Good luck with your project even if I don’t understand it.😀
Ride safe.

Looks like vtwin makes a kit. Looks like you could fab one yourself if motivated. Good luck with it.

Been riding my 45 Flattie with foot clutch since 1972. You get used to it. But I sure as hell would not convert a hand clutch bike to foot clutch for use in modern traffic. There is cool and there is cool, and then there is, well, just kinda crazy. But sometimes crazy is good!

If you are going to ride foot clutch, you need to let go of the modern "kit" mentality. Hook you old gear shift lever linkage right up to the clutch mechanism and go with a true suicide clutch. You can either make your own linkage or solder up your own cable.

1999 is not a late model, but i just bought a 99 Night Train with a foot clutch. I was thinking I was going to replace it right away, but cruising around on it today, it earned another day.

This is my first bike so it's probably not a good idea to keep it. But I'm going to see if i can build the muscle memory to downsh whil slowing down & see if i can find Neutral real quick.

It might stay.

At this point I've driven more foot clutch than hand clutch, s it's not really that awkward. Just the placement of the shifter, it's under my leg.

If you want to cheat a bit you can install one of those "rekluse" clutch kits that automatically disengages at idle.

That way you will avoid the "didn't find neutral and bike is tipping to the left at the stoplight" situation

I think I'm just going to make my own, suicide shifter, clutch linkage might be a section of chain links
