Not that I know that it applies to a 2012, but a 2014-2022? with hydraulic clutch paired with a Mueller or AIM slave cylinder is a one finger affair....

That said. Goldwing DCT all the way.

Perfect option, I've used their Torque Drive on last three machines, and been around plenty of guys that use the Auto Clutch option while maintaining the use of a manual lever. I hope they make you for your Bike. Great customer svc. if they don't already make it maybe you'll spark a Nitch market. Good luck to you, I would be somewhere on the 13th floor if I didn't figure something out. Maybe someone can Fab. you up a suicide clutch (worst case scenario).

When out riding the other day I ran across a senior rider about my age that went from a Harley to a GoldWing just for that reason. He had only 1000 miles on it but said he liked it.
That has crossed my mind, but I would like to stay on my 103... so smooth and so many add-ons that has made this my best HD.

At my age, I prefer to keep both hands on the bars

There are options out there to help people that have special needs in these situations, and I for one, love the innovative advances.
I'm in therapy now, twice weekly with dry needling. Still can't pick up a screw or coin, let alone sugar container.

Might want to consider a different bike too. Namely the new Honda Gold Wing with the DCT.

@No Tyme I was in therapy and did the dry needling as well. It broke up the scar tissue and helped speed up healing. I am praying for your continued recovery and safety beyond as you continue your path to recovery and continued riding.
