Great pic! So what to people do to make that work. Looks like an adapter is needed to get it on the engine lever

No, there is an adapter-deal that they send with it. Same as my pic. I did have to make a bushing that I had to put a flat side on for clearance, so it was basically more like the end of the stock cable. I had no trouble really getting the slave cylinder mounted. It just leaked a little with every squeeze.

I ordered the Jack kit for a 2002 KX500. The kit includes some hardware to hook the actuator to the clutch arm. From what I've read most guys just modify as needed to make everything work. I found complaints about leaks here and on thumpertalk. Seems like a lot of guys end up going back to a cable setup. For 200+ Magura should include a bushing / slave setup thats bike specific.

I use the ASV clutch perch and lever on my KX500AF. I use a CRF450R Honda brake master cylinder and ASV lever. The brake hose comes out of the back side of the Honda master cylinder and clears the Cycra hand guards. I bought the shorty version for clearance on the hand guards. They work great and I'm happy with them.

Thanks Danger, thats a cool setup. I'm having some clearance issues too, with cycra probends. Does the pull feel any better with the ASV setup?
