I too have a 2003 Fatboy and I had the dealer install one of the EZ pull clutches. It's Ok, I did notice a little easier pull but not much. I only did it so my girlfriend could ride the Fatboy. The clutch was difficult for her before.

Muller Power Clutch
Just installed the Muller Power Clutch. Adjusted per their instructions it works like a charm and just as advertised. A little pricey, but very well made and I am completely satisfied. It made a dramatic improvement in clutch lever effort on my '97 Sportster. Wish I had added it years ago.

but with ANY other scenario( modified engine,BAKER TRANSMISSION and/OR BAKER STREET CLUTCH or a Big C.I. S&S ENGINE ) that E-Z pull clutch ball and ramp wont withstand the extra torque or clutch pushrod stress engagement to make it work-especially with a stock clutch and throwout bearing )
I'll give you proper adjustment is critical as you're only moving the actuation rod about 60% of stock travel. But, once it's adjusted, it certainly is a nicer, better feeling, wider friction zone clutch.
And yes, the pic I posted above is from my personal bike (2016 FXDL).

My 1990 FLHS came stock with a different ramp angle making the pull easier. It did reduce the amount of throw and it wore out throw out bearings if it wasn't adjusted just perfectly. I removed it and couldn't feel any difference.

I've checked out the Burly Easy-boy Lite clutch, also the E-Z Pull Clutch assist and both sound similar with basically the same type reviews. Then today I found the Harley Davidson Easy Pull kit ,,

and now I'm wondering if anyone on the forum has had experience with this unit ? Pro/con

Clutch Wiz, 10 minute install by any amateur. Reduced effort on my '16 by a good 35%. If you are heavy handed, you may need the Screaming Eagle heavier pressure plate, but I didn't on a Heritage. Think it depends on weight of bike. It is so easy to install and machined so well, you need to take a look. It was originally designed for Tri-Glides because of their heavy pressure plates.

It's a 20 minute job. And that's if you're very careful and unfamiliar with wrenching.
The only thing that takes time is rethreading the clutch cable into the case threads. Sometimes, cleaning the threads with a tap helps start the cable shroud into the threaded case.
