Stiff Clutch

Hey boys and gurls,
The wifes been complaining about clutch hand gettin tired.
So, I changed all 3 holes ('02 Dyna Lowrider), adjusted clutch lubed all cables and adjusted the clutch cable.
It still is pretty hard to pull.
I seem to remember reading about a lever or bracket attached to the cable to help fix this but I can't find it again.
Any help would be appreciated
 
a buddy had the same problem on a 89 springer. seems to me he installed a power clutch (i will see if i can find it)
 
When doing the clutch adjustment after the installation of the EZ clutch, the adjustment is just a bit more sensitive because of the lesser throw of the actuator .
You shouldn't make the adjustment in the primary area any more than 1/2 turn out after lightly seating the pushrod adjuster otherwise you may not get full separation of the plates.

I run the EZ clutch in all the bikes I have had and it works as advertised. I used a scale attached to the clutch lever and after a before and after measurement, it took off about 3-4 LBS of clutch pull. It may not sound like much but in stop and go traffic you will see the difference then.
