Default 21 degree ramp

well i got my HD 21 degree ramp for my clutch today. im still tying to figure out if its a easy clutch like the guy said. i read an article that said the early 90s had a 15 degree and then went to a 18 degree so im assuming that 21 degree would be easy. any one know about these things.

well i talked to the man that sold me the ramp setup. he told me that more degrees means more travel to do the same amount of opening. so that means an easier pull.

It doesn't seem that it would be that way-the higher the degree number the easier it would be to pull. I have a 91 FXR and it doesn't seem that tough to pull. What's the big crisis?

well im starting to have problems with my left hand, comes from installing way to many concrete roofing tiles on 1,000 or more homes, so i figured to get a easy clutch. any ways i ordered one from MRC, suppose to reduce the pull by more than 40%, not cheap at $120.00 form harley but i can only find good posts on it.
