Very well demonstrated. I've been using the ProSpec Easy Clutch on my 535 GT for almost 4 years now without any issue... for those planning to install it on the 535 GT you would need the long wire version.
I was on the fence for buying the short version for my BS4 Himalayan and after this video i finally placed the order couple of days ago. Today Ajay from Pro-Spec team contacted me and told me that short version is not an exact fit to which i referred this video. He was aware of Ben and told me that they are speaking with him about the upcoming newer version for Himalayan. Approx ETA was 2-3 weeks depending on few other factors. There is also a cheaper version of Easy Clutch that will be available. Sounds like good news to me. Update : I am using Easy Clutch on my trip currently, it is working as promised, the only downside that i am facing is, which might be how i installed it, the adjuster on the clutch lever becomes loose after some time, which needs readjusting after sometime.
@@sagarmaske5973 yeah, they said a cheaper version with exactly the same functionality, only with with different material for the casing. ABS instead of Aluminium.
Which RE model do we have to choose to get the short version for himalayan bs6? The available models for the short versionon the website are 650 Interceptor, 650 GT, Machismo and AVL.
By pulling that inner cable from the clutch actuating arm ( on the crankcase) so tight, are you not putting a load on the clutch rod bearing - there should be freeplay in this arm? You don’t appear to have any.
I never needed any muscle power to install a clutch cable. You first need to give some slack from the free play adjuster, install the cable, then add proper tension to the cable using the adjuster.
I have the long cable on my 2021 Himalayan with adjustable short levers installed. Somehow I am not being able to extract the potential of the easy clutch. Has it got something to do with my install (done at RE svc) or the long cable is the culprit?
Please, do you have problems with engine detonation ( knocking) in accelerations mainly between 4000 to 5000 rpm? if yes, what is the solution? Thanks and congratulations, your vídeos até awesome!
Hi Ben, forgive me for asking a stupid question, on my Himalayan when I press the clutch and if it's in gear the rear wheel still rotates, is this a bad thing? If yes then what is the problem and how do I rectify it?
Hi Bro, Do we actually need to buy adjuster at cltch end ? I am trying to get this installed in meteor 650 and at lever end adjuster is already there Pls correct me if im wrong
Brother i have a 2021 Himalayan, done with first service... running around 1700kms, I'm getting mileage around 25-28 please advice is it normal or is there any way i can improve it.
It is based on the reducing fulcrum length at the output which reduces force required to use clutch. It may damage clutch plates as you are reducing the play at/on clutch plates.
I have just purchased this easy clutch with the long cable. It is far too long - about 8 inches too long with too many adjusters adding friction and tight bends. Utterly useless design. They should have provided custom cut lengths to fit specific bike models that copy the original cable length when installed. Also I am concerned about the much reduced cable pull ( a necessary trade off when you get a mechanical lever advantage which is all this system is). I fear the clutch plates will not completely separate leading to difficulty engaging neutral at a standstill.
There is NO reason why this item would do damage to your clutch the only reason i can see it doing damage is the stupidity level of the person fitting it ! it has adjusters on it just like the standard cable your bike come with so if you can't adjust pro spec easy clutch that tells me you can't adjust your standard clutch your bike has on it ???
The clutch needs a particular range of motion to fully disengage. Usually, clutch levers have some excess range. If the second-order lever is designed such that this excess is fully used and even the required range of motion is cut short, it could cause early wear and tear. I am going to this out with a shortened lever that slightly increases the range of motion of the lever. I hope it works, as I really like short (2-finger) levers.
