Default EFM Auto Clutch / Rekluse ProStart ? -- Who has experience with either one?

I wonder how they compare in terms of quality, they both seem to work the same way as centrifugal clutches ...

- How hard are they to install / adjust?

- Service support ? / Warranty ?

Rekluse kit is about $130 more costly ($830) compared to EFM ($700) is Rekluse ProStart worth the difference ?

Thanks fellas!

Honda made/makes the hondamatic bikes (auto transmission) if you don't like using a manual trans....

Got one in my custom. No other levers. Just go and shift as I roll off the trottle. Takes a little getting used to but works like a champ! How are you wanting to use it?

hey!... I got Revloc.. it works really well!.. I had it for the last 6 months... I liked the Revloc because it is a complete kit (clutch hub / disks.. etc).. so it was easier to install compared to the other solutions in the market... I am really happy with it!.. hey... is that your bike in the signature?.. great looking bike! BTW... REkluse stopped making centrifugal clutches for sportsters... only Big Twins now..

I know a lot of people that have used and had good luck with the Rekluse clutches on dirt bikes racing cross country off road, but don't know anyone that has used their street clutches.

I put a ReKluse in my wifes bike a couple of years ago and it works great. I am getting ready to sell that bike. If you wanted one for about 1/2 price I'd take it back out before selling it.

I am running an EFM Auto Clutch as well as a Quickshifter on a 02 Vrod. Bike is fast and setup works great!! Bike is for sale, if anyone is interested.

Nice idea, it only works from standstill in first right? Might help make a more user friendly suicide shift?
