Just had one put on our 96 wide glide for my wife. She was finding the clutch too hard to hold at stop lights etc. She reports it's a real big difference and is now no problem. Cheap too. $30 + install or something like that?

PS they routed the cables a little better and lubed them too...

I've had a Burly kit on my bike for about two years with zero problems. At first, it didn't feel as light as the '06-up H-D's did. However, after a few months of use, it got lighter and now feels pretty close (maybe even lighter) to the newer H-D clutches.

I must say, I put one on my wife's Nightster and it didn't make much if any difference. Lubing the cable helped a bit - more than the ez clutch, actually. Fortunately, as others have noted, it's a $34 part, and easily installed, so not much ventured, not much gained. YMMV.

Works like a charm, put one in after doing 95 kit. And the heavier SE clutch spring. Just have to remove tranny cover for quick install!

Had one installed on my Heritage and on my UC, works well, at least for me. Sure helped out with hand cramps when I was in traffic.
Good luck

Get her a Jockey kit so she can push that stiff **** clutch down wit' her foot?

Ha!

Buy the burly or something along those lines. They are $12.95 on E-Bay. Combine it with a HE or high efficiency teflon lined cable routed nicely. No need to lube the HE cable for a long time.

I had that setup on my Train with heavy SE clutch spring....Made riding around town veddy nice.
