The clutch is always stiff of these bastards. Brother had one, wife has one. One thing that helps is to swap out the clutch lever and perch with one for a CR85. It changes the pull angle and lever position a bit for a better leverage angle on the cable. Crazy how stiff the clutch pull is on a bike designed for kids really. Also grease the contact surfaces between the lever and the perch, and lube the shit out of the cable.
No, it is a leverage based system that makes the clutch pull easier. It uses leverage to extend and make the pull easier, or shorten and make the pull more difficult.

Earlier today I put a new cable, lever and easy pull. We are basically just refurbishing it. I also put some new brake shoes in it
What is an easy pull? Or are you just meaning the pull is easier now?

I will have to look into that. The wife’s hand gets pretty sore and cramped by the end of a longer trail ride.
