Adjustable clutch lever?

I'd like to find a lever with adjustments like the brake.  Right now the thing is pretty darn far away and I'm having to really reach for it.

Or, if there's some way to install a spacer keeping the lever closer to the bar?

And while I'm at it, do they make bar risers for the GS?

When I bought my bike, the previous owner was female and she had a tab welded onto the inside of the lever of about 1/4" in length, near the leading edge.

The only other thing I can think of is that some GSXR levers will work for the brake lever, maybe there's an adjustable clutch lever that wil work.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

go look at a bike shop
either SUZUKI or KAW have models with an adjustable clutch lever

to get cheapo risers....
buy two H-bar caps and longer bolts.....
place the second set of caps under the h-bars to rais the bars...about 1/2 inch

There are limits to what you can do about clutch lever span. The clutch needs the travel to fully disengage. You can sacrifice some of the free play, but the travel under load is more or less necessary in its entirety.
