I like hydraulic because you don't have to fuck with it...btw clutch fluid doesn't need to be changed as often as brake fluid due to the lack of heat. I mean, I've owned cars well over 10 years old with 100,000+ miles that have never had the clutch fluid changed

.

Well if you ever need that done let me know. I'll also change your head lamp fluid, muffler bearings,change the air in your tires, and adjust your variable power band.

Cable or hydraulic? Whichever one that was designed and made well.

Just Fucking Google it. You say it when somebody asks a stupid question.

Happy now?

You are a great student Sir Cutty.

I like the one that works

I currently have two bikes, one has cable, one has hydraulic.

No real preference one way or the other, though I like the FEEL of the hydraulic one better.

Generally speaking, you only put a hydraulic system on clutches with heavy heavy springs (high torque motors that require a lot of clutch pressure to avoid slipping) but that's not necessarily always the case.

Been back and forth and never really payed attention.
In other words...no preference.
