M8 clutch/shifting
 

Have noticed on the 2 '17's I test rode and on my CVO I just purchased I can feel the shifting in my clutch lever. Curious if anyone has experienced the same and possibly the cause

Yep thats just a quirk of the new clutch setup

Yep, I feel a definable "pulse" when shifting

Yep..me to. Don't notice it much anymore unless I think about it.

Never felt anything in 1,200 miles but I am used to hydraulic clutches from my CVO's.

It's the slip-n-assist clutch. Some previous models of CVO's has that clutch

I have felt this from the get go on my 2014 CVO Limited, hardly notice anymore. Clutch still works excellent at 25,000 miles.

Thanks

Same here. I can feel every Clunk although it's not a clunk per say. You can feel the gears move in the lever. Definitely enjoy the minimal clunk in 1st gear. In face sometimes it takes a good push on the shift lever to even get it in.

I've taken 2 test rides on the new ones. Both times i could feel each shift in the clutch lever. Upshift and downshift are felt in the lever. Not saying it's bad, just really different.
