Its not bad at all now. When I got it initially the two levers were only a fingers width diff in length. I trimmed the clutch on down to only handle one finger and moved the line fitting on the hb to allow the clutch to slide over another half inch and its perf now. And maybe its just my lack of skill, but for my first hb, it was a lil tricky to train myself to discern between the two. I think cause I'd been on a fiddy full time for like 3 months before I got my f4i. I hadn't even been usin a clutch for a while. But yeah, you're right, when placed right, its not too bad to figure out.

They flipped the negative when they made the picture so everything looks backwards.

Re: Handbrake and Clutch
I don't run my handbrake on the right with my front brake, but I swapped my throttle to the left side with the clutch to do one handed, one footed, rev-limiter, seat-stander coasters.

i do kno someone who runs a clutch and handbrake on a second set of pass. pegs for this trick he does where he skitchs off the back and clutchs up. also that europein guy ran a hand brake on his radiator to do no handed high chairs and i met a guy who was missing his left arm and ran all 3 front and rear brake plus the clutch all on the right side. so no its not that far fetched and its always intresting to see the new **** people develop or innovate and teach is an innovator so u never really kno
