Does anyone else find the clutch heavy. After a long ride I feel bollocksed so ive got to make the bike easier to ride..Fat boy says hes fitted an MPL slave .. does this help. Does it make the getting of neutral harder as Ive now sorted this and dont want to go there again. Is it hard to fit and any idea how much. Input appreciated

if you think the 'prillia clutch is tough on the old left hand, you should never buy a ducati lol. i used to have a 748 and in traffic jams, not to mention trying to go 30/40 mph (impossible without riding the clutch on the dodgy fi) it was simply agony!! they are beautiful for a reason - ie its the only way poeple can stomach the blatant financial and physical defections rofl.

When I first got this bike the clutch fealt real stiff, but I dont even think about it now. You will probably get used to it bro.

First thing I thought when I got my bike was that the clutch was really stiff. But you get used to it real soon and thats ancient history to me now. And it gives you a stronger arm for those reach arounds:devious
