That's not a common modification. I thought hydraulic clutches didn't come out until a couple of years ago.
Anything will fit with enough effort and enough money. You could put a Cummins diesel on your bike if you have enough money and want to make a big enough effort.
Is there a particular reason you want a hydraulic clutch? Some people that have it have complained about it.

"I thought hydraulic clutches didn't come out until a couple of years ago"
I did say 2004, as I had one ( from Harley) on my old RoadGlide. Been out a long time.
"An interesting question, but why do you ask?"
I'm going from footboards to mid controls on my 1992 FXRP, the clutch cable enters the cover at 3 o'clock, for mid controls, a different cover, the cable enters at 5 o'clock. I have a 5 spd hydraulic cover that lines up, can route a brake line with fittings fairly easy.

Should not have a problem at all other than controls meeting the clutch reservoir on the bars. I ran one on my 94 for a while until I had throwout issues and went back to cable.
I have a Barnett Scorpion clutch and the plate for hydraulic clutch which makes it work very well.
Use an HD M/C on the bars. Was on a road trip in 08 to SD and had issues with an aftermarket one losing pressure. Bought a new one in Denver and swapped it in hotel parking lot.
