When the clutch lever free play is adjusted correctly, the "friction point" is very close to the lever being all of the way out (engaged). You should only need to pull the lever in an inch or so (at...

Sport Demons
Get the Sport Demons in stock sizes. I had them on my '01 and they were a huge improvement over the stock Dunlops. BTW, the OEM tires were available, so they might not be that old.
