You think it's hard and it is a bit tricky but I assure you that adding a mechanical reverse lever on the outside of the clutch assembly reduces available hand space by a half. It's a bigger nightmare. Bought an aftermarket cap but ended up putting the stock one back on.

I'm sure many if you have similar stories.
