My Hydraulic Clutch Setup On My KX550

hughes:
Very nice. Looks custom built. No clutch arm. Looks like it drive the push rod without the clutch arm. What brand?

demographic:
Is it part of another bikes casing cut down or one you have made up from scratch?

 Hey, thats what I need! That is a very nice bike and clutch set-up! That looks like Honda design. I would like to discard my clutch arm. I think thats where alot of the friction is in the pull. I have seen hydraulic lines before, but they only give you like a 20% advantage over stock. There's e-z pull clutch with a little gear-box mounted to the bars that has a better advantage. I also got a tip on here that OEM Honda levers and perch have an easier pull. Also extending the arm gives some advantage, but I'm thinking you probably need to sweep the arm forward for the cable length.
  I have a new cable, but still wear out my arm in the tight trails. My buddy rides Honda bikes and their clutch set-up on the transmission looks like that, and his clutches are far easier than mine with the same levers. C'mon man, give it up and explain what you did there!!!! How smooth is that pull?

demographic:
OK I give up, what bike is it taken off? :?
