How's The Clutch?

[ZZCHOPPER]

It's stock. Didn't feel the need to touch anything. Now if I could just do something about the hydraulic clutch in my Harley.......

I've heard the 2019 does not have an assist spring. Could you look to see if that true?
Thanks,

A few questions? Are you driving a GT350? I'm not sure it the GT's have a different clutch feel. Can someone comment on that? What do you see as the down sides of running no clutch assist spring? I put my steeda spring back in the morning to see if there is a different amount of free play in the pedal when the clutch is all the way out. I see no difference at all. Took the steeda back out. I enjoy the car much more without the assist springs. That being said I do not want to hurt anything either. I'm a mechanical engineer but have to admit I have not looked into the mechanics of this clutch setup. I can't imagine the clutch assist spring having any impact on anything past the clutch pedal. Maybe there's something I don't understand. Really appreciate your comments. Based on my experience with the GT350 (the car I own only) it's hard for me to believe someone would be happy with the clutch feel. I disliked it that much. I'd be interested in what you think of the clutch feel without any assist spring. Thanks for you input. ZZCHOPPER

Yes, my car is a GT350. Would not have put in my opinion if I did not have one, that would be dumb. I have no problems with modulation, stalling or non linear feel. I have tried the Steeda spring and didn’t like the feel so reverted to stock. Have not run it without the spring due to concerns that the pedal wouldn’t fully return and create a bad situation for the master cylinder. As far as that goes though, there hasn’t been any iron clad evidence that this would be the case but I’ve heeded the theory. I have a little over 16k on my car and have not revisited the clutch feel thing in the past 2 1/2 years. Unfortunately I don’t have any more input on the topic.
