RE: clutch assist?
Bobber little more detail. Is the clutch lever hard or sitcky, or do you have an injury that makes it hard to pull. I just went in and did a cable adjustment on mine as well as a good lubing. I use my index finger and middle finger to engage the clutch, and it is a quick easy short pull. It's practicly effortless!

RE: clutch assist?
my clutch is not very hard to engage but now that ive broke my wrist its not as strong as before so im looking for a clutch assist. this system is very simple and it says it reduces the pull by 50%

I think 06 and up dynas already have a similar mechanism installed stock from the factory.
The 2005 and earlier clutches require much more pull than the newer ones.
not sure this is going to buy you anything.
good luck.

ah that explains a lot!
I would say give it a go and see what ya think. I take it you have tried moving the lever mount to a different position that might make it easier to engage.

RE: clutch assist?
I smashed my elbow last month and couldnt squeeze my cluch for about 10 days.
A friend of mine recommended a clutchassist. He said he installed one on his wifes bike and it made it so easy.
He was afraid the wind would push it in........LOL
