Default easy pull clutch mod/how to.

just finished doing this to my bike i tried going 1/2 inch extension but it was too long so did one with just a hair(prob 1/8 shorter). its not a huge difference but i can say my arm feels it. dont know if there is a similar post floating around but thought id share.

I'll start out by saying thanks for the link to the mod, but how weak are you that you have trouble working the clutch lever?

i stunt my f4i and the clutch gets hard to pull after 2 3 hours of clutching as your arm gets numb. just thought some people might want to do it as it only cost a couple of dollars.

this is a very common issues with people spending a lot of time stunting or even riding their bikes! Not about being weak it’s more so the repetitive movement.

Zombie thread alert!

That being said, I might look into this and would never have known it was "a thing" without it's return from the dead!

I've ridden my F4i more then most people, and I've never even gotten tired. Its a really, really easy pull clutch. Maybe stunting for hours on end sure otherwise I don't see the need. But everyone's different......

I agree that it's not a hard pull but my issue is age (51). I've been battling tennis elbow for 6 months now and it's getting better, but soooo freakin' slowly it's not funny. It has me practicing my clutchless upshifting though, so there is some upside...

Also, I was spoiled by my Ninja with the slipper clutch. That thing was butter!
