I have done a search here without results.....
Anyone got one fitted on a 1200?
Anyone got one?
Anyone?
 
there is a non-auto clutch kit from Rekluse for the GSLC.

there isn't an auto-clutch kit yet.
 
Thanks for that.
Anyone else?
 
Had one on a KTM EXCF 350 and it was pretty flawless to be honest, never even thought to check for a road bike though!
 
My point is that "I is wellard, innit" so intend to keep riding for as long as possible.
As I cannot do anything about the creaky bones and joints then putting less pressure on them will allow things to continue for another year or so.
Any techno improvements to make controls easier, bum softer, etc could be welcome additions.

why that is overly complicated electronic shite!!! Rekluse is just plain old fashioned mechanics, easy to fit easy to service easy to fix and its only auto engement dis engement its still a manual clutch

FFS some days it's like being on The Flintstones in here
 
makes riding in traffic easier, smooths out the jerkiness in the 990 throttle thats for sure, slow riding on any kind is a breeze. all round would fit it to every bike I own if I had a chance

GS has a lovely smooth clutch anyway.

Bem... A couple of years ago, I found myself with a similar problem. Following a pretty big smash whilst racing enduro I had, amongst other injuries, a smashed up left hand (broken bones, snapped tendons, crushed thumb, nerve damage, etc). As the rest of me healed, it was the left hand that kept me off the bikes.
I tried everything! I put a Rekluse in the enduro bike (for road use) but hated it. It made the clutch bite point and pressure very variable. To be fair, I couldn't hold on to the bars properly at this point.

Things that worked for me: Africa Twin with DCT for a few months.
KTM 690 Duke (2017)... This bike has the lightest clutch ever! The whole bike is super light.
As my hand improved I changed my Twin Cam to a water cooled GS. From my research, these have a very light clutch for a big bike. GSAP gets used a lot too!

Sorry for the rambling post... I'm suggesting that you already have a bike with a light clutch, if it becomes intolerable for you, then I think the suggestion of a DCT bike is the best. If you must have a proper clutch, then maybe look at a KTM. There are Rekluses available for most of their bikes. Those TT shocks will always have a good second hand value.

If more frictions means less pain then it could be the one for me!
No sign of anyone over on Adv site fitting one so I might ask Rekluse for any customer feedback........

You won't notice any difference, they say their system does not need heavier springs, as they don't show new springs I assume they use the OEM.
