Need to sissify my clutch
So, 2300 km as a new rider on the FXDF, and from the last few long rides, my left arm and wrist are in pain and I've got the tinglies in the thumb and first three fingers. In short, carpal tunnel syndrom raising it's ugly head. It's not the vibrations per se, the right side endures them fine, and while riding, I had enough strength and endurance to pull the clutch lever whenever neccessary. Above mentioned problems start after the ride and wake me up at night with quite a bit of pain. The one time I could avoid these complications I was riding with double gloves, the lower pair being MTB downhill gel gloves. So, that's one solution. The 1000 mile inspection is coming up (a bit late, I know) and I'd like the shop to reduce the pullback force on the clutch lever while they're at it. Is this very involved? Can I do it myself, perhaps?
This is the best option. The HD version, which doesn't fit your bike anyway, loses performance with higher torque engines, especially modded engines.
Ever considered to install the ClutchWiz? Reduced the grip on my '03 FXD with 40%!!
Installing the clutchwiz was a 30 min job....
