hydraulic clutch for 2002 california ev

Hi everyone, I need some help with a heavy clutch lever. I have quite severe arthritis in my hands and find that operating the clutch hurts considerably. I have heard that there ia a hydraulic conversion possible. Can anyone help as I would like do do a bit of touring this summer.
 Ahab.

suffering a bit myself after a run out on the Le Mans, its the stretch that does me, so might try a dogleg lever (if i can find one)…



Gutsibits do the parts for a hydraulic conversion, just over £200 I believe…

Just IMHO, not sure that will help. The Clutch springs are quite strong anyway. Have you tried a new clutch cable, may just be a case of too much Friction cos cable getting old.Â

Hi Neil
If you track down some dog leg levers give me a heads up would you? I don’t have the problem the OP does but I have short fingers :frowning: which means in order to reach the levers I tend to slide my hand towards the lever pivot point thus reducing the mechanical advantage and giving me arm/finger ache especially in traffic

Try a Venhill clutch cable. The one on my Lemon is easier to use than the hydraulic clutch on my V11 was.

Just found this (first item on page) http://www.gutsibits.co.uk/pr/TheShop/index.php?q=clutch+lever+assembly&f=d&Model=0&search=SEARCH

Might give it a go meself…

Some while ago I got a DL lever and tried to adapt it to the Tomaselli mount, never quite made it fit properly tho in spite of lots of filing.

Venhill also do these http://www.venhill.co.uk/Magura_Clutch_Conversion
Doesn’t specifically offer one for the Guzzi but it doesn’t look as if it would be beyond us to get one to work

Yes, they say you can have customisable parts, you need to measure the cable travel of original to choose.

Can’t see any prices tho?
