Default Clutch Question

Do you prefer a light or hard clutch pull . Mine is very light meaning I have to pull all the way back to engage it to shift . It took some getting used to but after lots of practice and road time it's not really an issue now . I would like to know if a harder pull would help with getting a quicker start and help when starting on hills . Lemme know what you think .

Spring tension is a preference thing, clutch adjustment is everything. Lots of articles in here how to properly adjust your clutch. Remember HD and most indies adjust it for the novice rider.
Most folks are clueless to the clutch adjustment, it's just another thing until it's explained properly we all go through. I posted the link below so inquiring minds would get some insight.
