Hydraulic clutch perhaps? Sure it’s not original, but it will have constant pull/feel. -

Say it isn’t so! I’d buy her, but shipping would probably cost as much as the purchase price! -

Right on!!! -
Safe-T was cool enough several years ago to let me in on the modified rear axle to fit a single nut ducati rear wheel. I still have it, and it works really well, I just want something that could work as a spare, and don't necessarily want to have to rework the entire rear axle/brake system. Although, that wouldn't be a stretch, as pretty much everything on my VFR has been re-worked.....

So if I understand you correctly, a Honda Hawk/NT650 rear axle will work for the VFR 750, just need to drill a different pattern for the drive pins?

Stomp grips help, small addition, but makes a big difference when you're riding aggressively. -
I could be mistaken, but I was under the impression that a coil is a type of capacitor, very well could be wrong, but if it is, I do not think wiring an additional capacitor in-line would be necessary. Interesting idea on the resistor though. I did run the COPs for one week, but then removed them, as the bike developed a nasty idle, and ran really rough once under way. Installing the stock coils remedied the issue, but your idea does make me wonder if a 1.5 ohm resistor would do the trick.
