i read this over at bluetraxx and did it on my bike so i thought id share here. I "borrowed" these pics from their thread.
This is an easy mod if you have access to a welder and can weld. This is done by lengthening out the arm above your side clutch cover which gives more leverage and makes it easier to pull. First i took the cable loose from the bracket, slid the cable out of the way. Next i decided to add about 3/4" of an inch so i found a piece of steel the same thickness as the arm and cut it the same width as the middle of the arm and 3/4" long. Cut the arm in half and weld the new piece in. I then ground down the welds and made it smooth so it looked nice,a little spray paint will help. Now, since the angle of the bracket that holds the cable will be off, i used a pair of needlenose pliars and bent the bracket towards the the cover just enough so that it would line up straight with the new arm. All that is left is to adjust your clutch up and enjoy the easy pull. This worked very well for me, with the barnett clutch and extra plate i can pull my clutch with one finger now. feel free to add stuff to this if you do this mod.
