Wish I had some mid-controls to trade - I'd love to have some OEM forwards to replace the after-market ones on my '97. Buy some mids, then sell the forwards on Ebay for a profit.

There is a thing that is called Easy Clutch. Makes the pu;; 100 times easier. Used to have it on my 95. Good luck.

My wife is 4'11 and rides a 09 Nightster with HD Forward controls. We changed out her seat to give her a little more reach. I also installed a Drag Specialties Power Clutch for her that made the clutch pull about 40% easier (made in Germany).
