I've bent mine out like 2strokes4ever did but not as bad, if you land on them in the sweet spot they bend easy.... Back to the clutch subject I found that just using the ASV lever softens your clutch pull, I heard from ktm guys that the only thing they hate about the hydro clutch is when your climbing a hill it just gives out you cant feather it like a standard clutch.... I guess that goes with the "feel" like Bob was talking about. Has anyone else experianced this?M.F.D.B. wrote:So you are saying it coiled up like a snake in the direction the lever flexes?2strokes4ever wrote: around inside itself, kind of like a dogturd, or MR whippy

No. I would have to wonder about the routing of the "cable". Possibly too close to something that gets hot on a climb and boils the fluid? Seems unlikely that the KTM engineers would have screwed up something like that though.caseyracing222 wrote:I heard from ktm guys that the only thing they hate about the hydro clutch is when your climbing a hill it just gives out you cant feather it like a standard clutch....

If your clutch fades, fry's, pukes its guts out, of otherswise fails.... its a CLUTCH ISSUE.
