Would be nice. I believe Danny would benefit from this as well.

Maybe I could find a DIY or figure it out myself, this ratio of mods I do myself versus one's where I get helped is getting bad.

Although, I would imagine it would suck even more if you lived on the East Coast since all the parts would come here first then have to go via ground shipping to the East

I think he's got a far worse problem than the one at hand.

The clutch was easy to adjust. My clutch is still heavy, but much smoother now.

I'm still working on some blinker ideas.
