Easy Pull Clutch?? which one to get
have an 07 Electra Glide. got the bike with 5000 miles and from day one the clutch seemed Weak and slipped if you tried to throttle hard and take off. so i installed a heavy duty clutch spring from Barnett. this is the kind of spring you remove the stock outer spring on clutch basket and swap for heavier duty one. now in traffic i get hand cramps from constanly pulling the clutch in which is a pain in the *** when happens. i see they made a few different easy pull clutch kits that mount where the Clutch Cable goes into the trans.. they have one thats like a bracket and bolt thats really cheap. then for ALOT more they have the 3 ball bearing one with a longer arm ... is one better then the other or do they both work good? if the cheap one does the job and does it good why go with the 3 ball bearing one with longer arm?? btw adding the heavy clutch spring Made Huge difference in the bike plus im doing a 103 kit and woods tw-555 cams so need the beefier clutch or i would consider taking it out if i wasnt doing that . but since i already bought the kit theres no going back 
.. before you go flaming me on being a sissy and cant pull a clutch in . im not a small guy, just been a mechanic for many years and have slight carpul tunnel in my wrists now . and only seems to bother me when im in traffic

if your 103 kit is a harley kit, it'll come with the right clutch spring included. oh i see that you're going to use the tw-555 cams, so it's not the harley kit. i'm not sure if a hydraulic clutch system rather than cable would help.
