Clutch Lever and Handlebars

I have the clutch lever adjusted to the lowest setting and I still have a little trouble reaching it easily. Does anyone know if an aftermarket lever is made for smaller hands. I have seen them for other bikes but can't find one for the Nomad.
My ride is a 2011 Nomad 1700.
Also any tips on how to get the caps out where the handlebar mounts are, so that I can move the handlebars in a few inches.

Thanks
Rick De

Use a small flat head scewdriver or a knife to pop the riser clamp caps out. Sorry, I can't help you with the small hands issue. You need as much travel as possible with a hydraulic clutch.

Thanks for the info

Taking off the caps was simple and once I moved the handlebar closer in the clutch lever no longer feels so wide.
