Yes, the brake is a shorty & clutch is long.
The clutch feels about the same as stock but with a LOT more adjustability.
I had surgery on my left hand beginning of may and have a lot of stiffness when gripping anything now. I can now adjust the clutch OUT a lot further from the bar, which helps until I get back to normal.
The shorty brake feels more natural now because I only used 2 fingers anyway. So now my index finger & middle finger is all that will fit on the brake lever. The brakes are plenty powerful enough for two fingers.

I was off the bike for 3 months and wondering if I would EVER be able to grab the clutch lever again. The recovery time for a tendon repair is LONG. Still going to physical therapy twice a week and that helps. And I've lost a lot of strength in my left grip. But it's coming back. I feel OK riding, finally, but it was touch & go for a while.
And I AM glad to be with you all still.
