·I have been out riding at last as the weather here in Montana has been the pits for weeks, the sun is out now and so am I. Any who, I figured out if I set my clutch lever to the lowest setting the clutch action works like a charm. The Surflex engages and disengages in about the first inch of clutch lever travel, it is a one or two finger affair. I found that if I set it out as far as it goes two fingers is it. If I set it in as far as it goes I have to use them all because the lever hits any fingers remaining on the grip. I like using all of my fingers so it is set now to the closest to the grip setting, I found this works fantastic for me, short fingers. The engagement is sweet and no lurching or other problems. For street riding the Slipper is sort of a waste of money except for the super easy lever pull. If I get agressive with it all I get is a small chirp of protest from the back tire and that is it.
I would highly recommend a Surflex if anyone is concidering a Slipper Clutch for their Ducati with what I have experienced so far. The real test will be how it holds up over the long haul.
