[QUOTE="N4HHE, post: 1308483, member: 89143"] Had the opportunity this afternoon with a 2014 A parked next to my 2016 A to apply a handheld luggage scale to the clutch levers of both bikes. In no way would I claim these numbers are absolutely accurate but they are reasonable to compare one against the other. This is the pulling force, not the holding force. There is a lot of stiction in the system, deliberate I suspect because it makes it easier to hold the clutch than to squeeze the clutch. 2014 FJR1300A: 8800g 2016 FJR1300A: 6300g The 2016 is about 30% easier to squeeze. The 2014 had been ridden an hour prior, the 2016 was cold. [/QUOTE]
