Aim vpc 70t

I finally got my AIM VPC 70T installed and boy does it make a difference. Late last fall I had a severe pinched nerve in my left shoulder and found the standard clutch required way to much effort to pull. I then decided to order the 70T but bad weather forced me to put the bike up and I did not get around to installing the clutch. Once the weather got better I didn't want to take the time to install and instead rode my trike. Much to my surprize a lot of the strengh came back to my left hand and I started thinking that I really didn't need to make the change. But after a couple of 450 mile days I noticed that my fingers were tingling in my left hand and my left shoulder was hurting so I decided to do the install.
I think that it requires 1/2 the effort to pull the clutch now when stopped and at lower speeds. At higher speeds don't notice so much of a difference but the slow speeds and stop and go traffic is really where I need this. The other benefit is now I can find netural at the first try.
I also have noticed that my shoulder and arm does not bother me after a longer ride. I am really glad I made this change.

I installed the VPC 84T last weekend. Got it on E-bay from Eastern Power $220 delivered less a 10% E-bay coupon and some E-bay bucks came to a total of $182. It's not quite as easy of a pull as the 70T but it's still much easier than stock.
