Title: Lighter Clutch Pull
Post by: Tommy D on July 17, 2020, 08:01:34 PM
In my '14 TK with 120 square using a 98B SE clutch diaphragm in a stock clutch set up... looking for another effective option for my arthritic hand to reduce the lever pull.

I'm not familiar with, is this a complete clutch replacement or a simple diaphragm r&r ?

I have installed numerous, Mueller and AIM slave cylinders and they work fantastic.  Rekluse has one out now as well.

I have no experience with the AIM slave cylinders, but I installed the Muller for a buddy of mine & he's thrilled with it   :up: :up:

I run a rekluse TorqDrive clutch pack (not auto clutch) in a 03 FLT making 129/130. Stock 04 clutch spring. Does not slip. Did not slip on a dyno.  Don't even worry about it anymore. If it ever wears out I would definitely buy another. They make them for the later models too.
The more clutch plate surface area allows you to use a lighter springs

I believe turboprop or Ohio is using a Rekluse, and those guys do not fool around when it comes to making horsepower.

I installed one on my 2015 SE RK a few months ago. The clutch pull is way lighter, and the install was easy. It fits through the derby cover.

I installed the Muller Slave a year and a half ago, works as a light pull and wider friction zone.
Love it!
Would buy another.

Does it make sense to have both the Aims VPC and Mueller clutch slave installed simultaneously?

I ran the Rekluse auto clutch for a year or so and liked it.  I recently switched to the AIM cylinder and put the stock clutch back in.  The Rekluse is really nice but it had one issue I didnt like.  You could not park on a hill and leave in gear so it didnt roll away.

Now that is an issue that I never would have thought of. Good to know. Time for the heavy rubber band around the brake handle. Or the little spring loaded clip like my atv.

I am running the AIM SDR along with their slave clutch in my 124"  I have the heavy duty springs along with 3 shims and the clutch handle pull is still like stock.

I'm using the muller and SDR in my 124, light pull and no slipping on the dyno pulls.
I like it!
