I was not sure about doing this mod as I've read mixed reviews from good to indifferent. The feel of the bike, being the most important thing to me, I decided on, Pro Star kit and Hel ss lines w/out delinking this winter. I Love It, shifts are much tighter with shorter stroke, does not eliminate any of the clunkiness around 1st and 2nd but being tighter it feels better. Clutch-less shifts are sure and easy, without having to worry about rpm's or acceleration as before, and with that neutral is easier to find when trying to find, which was my biggest concern, as i ride for work in a downtown setting and like to find neutral at the lights to sit upright. For me it is a great mod.
ps. In a instillation thread i followed on VFRD, it suggested that it might be easier to install the "sprung arm first then the star" which is impossible as i tried for almost an hour. install per service manual, which takes 2 minutes.
Ill let you know how the ss lines turn out. Thx
