I noticed you've been dabbling in the clutches for our bikes. It's truly the worst clutch ive ever felt lol. Have you made progress? What has helped? What has been a waste?

I ended up getting a zeta clutch perch and it helped alot at the bars but that cant fix everything

Remove the judder springs, drill the clutch hub for better oil flow (Hinson hubs come drilled, I copied their drill pattern) and swap your clutch spring bolts/washers out for some with some spring centralising spacers.

I made my own, see page 3 of my build: https://www.vitalmx.com/forums/Bike-Builds,46/2015-Suzuki-RMZ450-Proper-Build,1312131?page=2

I was pleased with my clutch after these mods, worked well and felt very smooth

I have a full hinson set up. I'm gona try the washer set up Russ has in his post. Seems very likely to help out. There's also a motion pro cable I found on RMATV that is more adjustable than a stock cable. May try that out too.
