Hydraulic Clutch Lever
I recently purchased a new 2020 SG Special, love the bike, cant believe how well this thing handles for such a big bike. Ive owned several harleys in the past this is the best bike by far. The one thing that has bothered me is in stop and go traffic the clutch lever really wears out your hand on these hydraulic clutches. Did some research and found Hogleverage levers. I ordered and installed. I cant believe the difference. Sooooo much better. Very easy to adjust to a point in which you are comfortable and the quality is terrific. Ive done a ton of upgrades on this bike and this one is so simple yet makes a big difference. Great product.

Have seen no comparison of the pull required on the '21s (return to cable clutch) compared to the hydraulic of the previous years.Hard to believe no one at Harley noticed the difference in pull force required with the hydraulic set up.

Yes the clutch lever pull on my 21 SGS is at least 50% harder than the hydraulic on my last 20 limited. Might check into the Burly product that adds leverage to the clutch cable.
