The OEM clutch on my FZ6 was designed for someone with bigger hands than mine, but after buying a replacement set from eBay it was much easier.

As mentioned with me it's not the size of my hands that's the issue, it's nerve damage pain that's the problem.
It will ease up with time like it already has from when I first got back on the bike.
Gotta remember too that, injuries aside, I hadn't used the bike for nearly 18 months, and had also lost strength in my hand so every time I use the levers it's a repetitive exercise that helps me get my strength back to the way it was.
My short levers do have 6 settings to choose from, and I use them on #2 setting, as #1 setting doesn't work well enough for me.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.

The Faz most definitely has healing properties.  Smile

As for the clutch, try clutch-less changing. It works a treat on the FZS600 but only going up the box as its not that good going down. Slight pressure under the gear leaver then a quick off and on the throttle and it into slips into the next gear smoothly once you get the hang of it. Not so good in slow heavy traffic either, works best when making progress.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
