Must admit its the AF road that I've kind of been thinking about. It ticks most of the boxes for me. Was a bit concerned reading that the quality of the parts wasn't that great. But like you say at around £225 it seems a good buy. Did add up all the ATOMIC clutch parts and when you have finished buying all the components including 5plate clutch kit it starts nudging towards £180 !
How is the lever action using the AF road? Is it light? Would it benefit with a Yamaha lever conversion?

Or use an Easy Clutch.....

Simple Mechanical device that sits in-line on the cable.

I've ordered one and when it arrives I'll let you know. I'm having a mare getting a light feel to several clutches I've tried recently. Even with a correctly routed MB cable and Yam lever it's a wrist aching pull.

Not used one on a lammy but on a bike...

Recon you could hide it in the horncasting, just need to make a custom cable to take you from the unit to the clutch lever... do that easily with a screw on trunnion....

I'm using one with an af road and am very pleased with both. Easy clutch does lighten up the action a good bit.

These little devices have been for sale at Beedspeed for quite some time. I always thought they were a bit of a gimmick and never thought they would do what they say on the tin !
Would be interesting if these really did help to make the clutch action lighter.

In their defence this is a complete kit including cables and the cable trunnion.
