Clutch rod modification

This is one of the more unique clutch mods I've seen.  The clutch can be a pain to disengage without a pulley, but this hack would theoretically make it a bit easier to pull in the clutch. 

Rounding off the edge of the half-circle might give the clutch more of a dropoff and make it easier to ease in/out.  If you're one of those people who slips the clutch to start from a complete stop, this may make that process even easier!
