Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
I will def. be ordering myself one too but ill wait till your next batch of perches are made. I want the full length lever with the slimmer, not so bulky clamp.
Also, will the initial discount still apply since you originally only offered the shorty levers?

You'll be able to adjust the revised setup right down to that point if you want to. It'll just be long finger guy friendly.

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
I'm pretty sure it goes in where the bolt that holds the lever to the perch is. Usually in the lever itself. Probably won't make a bit of noticeable difference.
I'm sure the bushing is just fine for a long time.
Righteous, I know you originally planned to put them in there but they were too steep.
Have you checked into bearings at http://www.vxb.com ?
THey are fairly priced.
Maybe something like these:

There needle bearings and there's not much deference other than about a $1 in this use. EDIT now that I think about it a needle bearing will reduce the force it takes.http://www.mcmaster.com/#5905k21/=3sjgba

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
Needle bearings are ok but they are open and exposed to dirt or whatever else. They also fall apart pretty easily.
I like the sealed ones myself. Simple and there's no maintenance.
It's really no big issue for a clutch. It will wear eventually without one but he gives 2 bushings anyways.
As far as smoothness, you probably couldn't tell much difference in the dark

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
I'm going to have the program redone to shave some bulkyness and make it to accomodate Maguras and Brembos. There will still be guys with funky masters that will have to modify it to make it work, I'm sure. But I am going to make sure the Magura guys and Brembo guys are covered. Not sure on time frames for that redesign, but I've already got the ball rolling. Might even happen with this next batch of perches, but I'm not promising anything.
Sorry, once again Kyle. I should've done more R&D, and fit this unit up to a Brembo setup, also.....before going full production. This is all new to me.....learning as I go.....****, I'm a glassblower!

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
I was going to ask about the tab idea for us Honda guys. I would love to have the ability to hook my clutch switch back up instead of leavin it disconnected, which is a little hillbilly IMO. should i do it myself, or are you planning on something?
Either way, I'm gonna stay down for ya R1 and do my best to help you get this thing off the ground. I just love to see a come up like this!

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
Alright, time for my review of the Righteous E-Z Pull Shorty Clutch Lever ProToType.
I'm not going to be as critical as others, because I can see the tremendous potential here. not to mention, I absolutely LOVE being involved in the idea that's being birthed here ( a new product being born from the gruond up.)
So, I got it in the mail (sweet disclaimer LoL) and put it on (pretty easy/trouble-free install) and this thing looks Boss as ****!
R&D advice: (not nessessarily negative)
1. Deburring could be a little cleaner (but it still looks great!)
2. A clutch switch tab IS A MUST for us Honda riders. (a huge part of the market!)
3. The lever needs to be about 1/2 inch longer to clear the headlight switch housing (which can't really be relocated nicely) and for 2 finger pull option.
4. The lever needs to be just a little further out to prevent clutch slippage and hitting the clip-on (already being fixed I hear.)
5. Occationally, the lever doesn't fully return, causing clutch slippage. (it's the lever, not the bike/Me/Install). I took mine apart and ground it down just a little and presto! problem solved.
All in all, it's a Great Lever at a great price. once we get these few issues dealt with, this thing is going to be the one to beat, for sure!
Great job R1 !!!!!!!! let's keep this thing movin!

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
Well it's made out of billet aluminum , More leverage than an EZ-pull , uses a much larger barrel adjuster (less likely to strip out) & it's made by a rider not a huge corporation .

Re: Righteous Stunt Clutches Shipping NOW!!
that's what I was affraid of it finger on urea hb needs to be at the end of your lever for good feel & power
