Default Hydraulic Clutch

Do they only put hydraulic clutches on CVO models from the factory?

Yep, if you want hydraulic on anything else you have to do it yourself, but it's not complicated. Just expensive. OTOH, it's worth the expense & time.

Smile Do you know who makes hydraulic clutch?

I have a hydraulic clutch but it does not have any slippage; it just wants to run. I am use to some clutch slippage on my other bike. I was told there may be 3rd party vendors or manufacture out there. I looked all over the internet and am not sure what I am looking for. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

My bud has a cvo r/g with a hyd clutch & I like my cable much better, go to your local dealer and try to pull the clutch in on a cvo and you will see what I mean.

CVO has the stiffer SE clutch spring. Hyd much smoother
