I have one on my steelie and even with the heavy duty EBC springs its still a lighter pull than my stock setup on the AF. Definatly one of the best things I ever did to my bike.

I know my name's not Bob, but I am VERY happy with my Magura Jack. It may be a waste of money to most riders, but with as much as I have to work the clutch riding where I do, it has been a huge benefit. My clutch hand does not give out anymore. Significantly decreased pull. Smooth action. Like butta. Low maintenance, well not compared to traditional cable setup, but still. It took a few times fiddling with it to figure out how to set it up properly, but since then, no issues. If I was not riding the stuff I do, I don't know that it would be worth it though.

I have the " Carbon Barnett " hooked up to a Magura Hyd. set up.
Pro's:
1. Very light pull. Good for long rides.
2. Self Adjusting
3. Barnett is 3 years old, very abused, still works great.
Con's:
1. Has very little " feel" to it due to the missing " progressive" pull of the stock lever set up.
2. If you dont understand it, some folks have issues in setting it up.
I like it, but I got it off ebay for $60. If I paid $200, I would'nt like it as much.
