This makes small modulatons in braking or clutch engagement more difficult as the will happen faster.
Is it really that bad? I never use the clutch to upshift, just for 1st and downshifting. Braking I only use my middle finger covering with my forefinger. I'm more concerned with ripping off the stock levers and potentially causing other damage in the event of a get off.
