So you are saying it coiled up like a snake in the direction the lever flexes?

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?

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.

THIS IS NOT A CLUTCH.... its a plastic tube with oil inside instead of a twisted wire. Thats it, nothing more....
If your clutch fades, fry's, pukes its guts out, of otherswise fails.... its a CLUTCH ISSUE.

Yea I found it weird too. Maybe there uncomfortable using the clutch on a hill
