:p Yahoo
I was in a bad accident months ago, not on a bike
Doctors told me that I will not ride again this summer....( among other things..steel plates in my left arm and pins in my hand, plates will come out late august, then back to a cast)
Yesterday, with little feelings in my fingers, I was able to pull the clutch in
then the big test,
started the bike, pulled clutch in, put it in first, moved a few feet, pulled clutch in and shut her down

but for me yahooooooooooooooooooo

oh the simple pleasures in life
bet I ride again this summer

just wanted to share with my friends :german :whistle :blah ;)

yahooooooooooooooo

take a look at some of the easy clutch set-ups that are out there, have to make sure your clutch adjustments are perfect but they will reduce the pull by 50%, I once tore all the tendons in my clutch wrist badly so I added a hook(on the brace I had to wear) that matched the lever so I could work the clutch without flexing the hand(woundn't have been to good in the mountains but it kept me going until things healed!!!

I post this in another thread about clutches. This is about how you can make you own using the stock clutch with out modifing it. I plan on doing this to my 80 R65 that has the hard pull clutch. I bought a clutch cable many years ago that had been modify for easy pull and love it on my 75 R90/6. The easy clutch cable mod that is out you modify you cable it is a high price for what you get and have to modify your cable.
