When I got my '17 FLHTK I really disliked that the friction point of the clutch was so far out.
I got the Oberon adjustable from HOGLEVERAGE.COM and it allows me to put the friction point anywhere I want it. Setting 2 puts it about 1-1.5 inches from the grip and the bike will still start in gear.
I bought the PSR Journey clutch side only for my 18 Road Glide about a month or so ago. Seemed to be well made and were comfortable. In the 2 positions closest to the grip the bike wouldn't start in gear. I reached out to PSR 3 times in email over the course of about 2 weeks asking if they had a solution and I received no response and still haven't received a response. So I packed it up and sent it back based mainly on poor customer service (and the fact that I couldn't start in gear).
I then applied heat to my stock grip and bent it with guidance from this forum. Did a little filing and sanding to get it to start in gear and I'm happy with the results. And this solution was free.
Have the oberon on my 15 SG. Have small hands and arthritis in my thumb joints. Initially had it in setting 2. Setting 1 would engage clutch with lever pulled in. Did need to start in neutral. Definitely helped. Recently installed the muller secondary actuator. Initially thought I would need to use stock lever but the oberon at setting 3 is fine. With both, the clutch pull and wrist strain is much better. Engages almost immediately. Hardly have any wrist pain where before I needed to treat with ice after any lengthy ride. Sucks getting old.
Looks like there are a couple companies making adjustable levers for touring bikes. Any experience or recommendations?
I run Oberon Airo's, luv 'um!
initially got them for a my ladies Streetbob 'cause she was struggling with the cable clutch gap... decided to get a set for mine as well. Lots of colours to choose from. Easy to fit.
