Easy pull clutch for 883 Low

We got my wife an '08 883 Low a couple of weeks ago. I rode it to the HD dealer yesterday to get the windshield, passenger seat, backrest, and rack put on. It's a hoot to ride, even with my long legs on the mid mount controls - I'm 6'5" and my FXD has forwards.

The clutch seems to have a heavier pull than my FXD does. The dealer didn't have a source for an easy pull kit for the 883, so I used the search function here and Google and came up with a few ideas. At this point, I'm leaning toward the piece from EasyPullClutch .

Is there anyone out there with recent experience putting a kit on a late model 883? Need to know what works (worked) and if there is a real reduction in pull effort. My wife is brand new to riding and I don't want her to get distracted or discouraged.

Thanks for any and all help. Need to get back to studying - took today off to get ready for a midterm exam tomorrow in management science - fun, fun, fun.

I installed one on my 05, it does work, just guessin i'd say 40% easier. Very easy install, about 30 minutes.
