Buddy posted some pics of new color Sharks and said they went back to a clutch cable as opposed to the hydro clutch.

Mike,

Crazy! I just saw a video at Moonshine HD. And your buddy is correct, NO Hydraulic clutch!!!  Simply nuts.

Kinda like the "Gang of Four" song: "1 step forward, 3 steps back!"

Not everyone was enamored with the hydraulic clutch.  Like the change to exclude the heel shifter last year, I'm fine with this.  It'll be nice to be able to adjust it again, and not have that big ass reservoir hanging off the bar.

This reminds me... Kick starts are more reliable than an electric start.


Did not say EASIER, I said reliable.

That will be next after they do away with the electronic ignition.

I have confirmed we will be back to having clutch cables for 2021.
As a side note, I spotted a Harley Davidson Semi heading east on 94 here in Michigan today.
Presumably loaded with 2021's.

I'll bet that at least the CVO line up will still have the hydraulics. We'll see, won't we?!

I would think all CVO & NON-CVO bikes would have the same clutch.  The MoCo has been cutting costs for sometime, especially on CVOs.  From a manufacturing perspective, think of the cost and trouble of having to produce two separate clutch systems for the same assembly line.  As you say, “we’ll see...”

Street Glide for example did not come with a hydraulic clutch except on CVO's until 2014 I believe. I'd need to dig a little deeper for the rest of the lineup. So it would seem they are reverting back a few years. But as I said before, we will see.  :nixweiss:

I have never like the Hydro clutch. From the videos I have seen on non cvo touring bikes arriving at dealerships they are cable clutches, Now it will probably take 3 years for Harley to officially release a retro fit kit for my 18.

CVO got the hydraulic clutch before the rest of the touring bikes did, it was several years earlier.  I know I have been on Hydraulic clutch bikes since my 12.  Cant remember for sure but seem to think my 09 was also hydraulic.

I cant think of a good reason for going backwards to cable other than cost cutting. 

The 21's also have a new ECM.  I believe its also has 17mm O2 sensors now.  Requires a different plug in.

CVO’s got hydraulic clutch in 2003! Whether you like hydraulic, or hate it, it’s clear Harley is cutting back on its cost to build bikes.

Why in the world would they go back to cable clutch?  Doesn't make sense to me.

My ‘01 FLTRSEI2, cable clutch takes roughly HALF the effort to operate as my ‘11 FLTRUSE!! This has irritated this old arthritic man for 10 years now!!!!

YAY CABLE!!!!!
