    for what i know, beringer & magura have a setup for buell.

    the magura has a possible leak problem at the fitting...(from what i hear)

    my techs are in the process of making their own...:o

    Yes, buell fanatics has the best so far (they claim).
    Also, look at the V-blast exhaust system with the remapped ecm, they sell along for X-tra catshingas ofcourse;
    Otherwise Twin motorcycles (Martin & Dris) is releasing one now. They are all pretty expensive. But hey, if you buy one, tell us about it. I think the original -04 clutch ramp works splendid, even though i used to have Müller power clutch before. Yes, before i bought xtra clutch plate kit which is not compatible with Müller.
    The Magura i would not buy. It's not without a reason Twin MC is releasing one.

    Hi guys, I don't want to buy a clutch conversion kit off the shelf,need to make my own. Just one question: when you pull the clutch lever in, does the adjuster(bottom end) on the clutch go in (towards the gearbox?) haven't studied it yet,to busy riding to have a look! Still winters comming (UK)
    keep safe all Limey.

    don't know what you mean by the adjuster, but the spring is compressed when the lever is pulled in.
    so that would mean that the plate is pulled outward.

    That's a shame cos I was hoping that the diaphragm spring was compressed to put the clutch in,which meant that I could use a Kawasaki clutch slave cylinder to press the spring in,(did this on my Rickman & Harris) will have to have a re-think.
