Is there a clutch/springs for a 1980 sporty that can reduce pulling effort ?

Lew

Lubing the cable and lever pivot points can make a major difference in lever effort.
I'm not aware of any reduced effort clutch kits available for ironheads except for this....

Thanks Lewy ,That's what I figured some lube and hand exercise for this dainty girl I know.

Another thing that will help (if not running them already), is a set of aftermarket 'ergonomic' style levers.  They're easier to wrestle with because of their wide, and more radically curved blade.
I have a set of these on my shovel and really like them.

Looking at a catalog, I see J&P has them listed.  They're available as a set, or just the clutch lever only.

 I think a guy named Jack Lalane can help you.
