    Just got an email from Steve at Midwest Mountain. Their two finger easy pull clutch lever for the 630 is now available. His email is steve.pohl@midwestme.com...

    Travis,

    I have them in stock just have not updated the website yet. You can send a paypal payment to my email address in the mean time. The clutch lever is $65. A matching brake lever is $50. USPS first class mail is $3.60. International USPS Priority mail is $15.

    My clutch pull is already like slicing butter with an easy two finger pull. Your bike isn't? Very nice looking lever though.

    It is smooth, no doubt. This lever is short enough that with two fingers you don't pull the lever to smash your ring finger and with the new pivot point clutch feathering is a one finger job.

    I get arm pump riding tight single track even with a 14t cs. Maybe I'm just a wuss.

    I don't wear a ring so that helps for me. When I first started two fingering I thought my fingers could get smashed but not really possible. Can't pull in lever hard enough with two fingers to hurt. I also would not ride like this without barkbusters in the woods. Otherwise you could really hurt your fingers if you smacked a tree.

    I've finally got the lever installed and it is sweet. Clutching is a one finger exercise now. Only downside is that the clutch safety switch pin isn't contacted when the lever is pulled. For now I shorted it out; I'll add a glob of JB Weld to the lever so that it contacts the pin when the lever is pulled. I'm guessing I'm going to have the same issue with the brake lever when I install that. Lever is also much broader (vertically) so the load is spread out over a larger part of your finger.

    I was too excited to get them on the bike and ride! I'll snap some today and upload.

    Provided you have the same clutch lever as a 630 yes :) MME actually only advertises them for KTM's, he didn't realize that we have the same Magura clutch setup. I'll put a pic of a stock 630 lever up - if your 610 lever looks the same I would say they would fit.

    The 610 clutch is cable actuated. Probably not the same part.

    You can see the pin down inside the lever pivot cage - when you pull in the clutch this pin has to be pushed back a little in order to close the clutch safety circuit. You can also see the large adjustment screw on the lever - I have backed mine out a bit so that the lever sits closer to the bar and isn't so much of a reach.
