Default Auto Clutch??

Tell who established Auto Clutch, on how many it is is useful and convenient? How difficultly to establish it. I can establish it without variation of a standard basket of coupling? I have seen on sale it here: http://cgi.ebay.com/

I shall be grateful for any information!

It might be interesting and easy to use but for that kind of money I'll stick with the stock system.

As I understand it the system they use is basically a centrifugal weight system that as the engine speeds up grabs tighter. So while the engine is idling the clutch is disengaged. But as soon as it speeds up the weights force the clutch plates tighter.

Its a common system that's used in really high performance drag race cars. But they need something like that to control wheel spin on cars with up to 5 or 6000 HP (6,998,750,000 to 8,398,500,000 Watts).

Here's a link to the maker that explain's the system a bit better.

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing or not now.

But the "Easy Clutch" setup is really just about a $15 kit (not $1,500) part that has been standard equipment on all factory bikes made from 07 (I think) on.
If your bike is an 07 or newer then it should already have the parts installed in it.

I'm not sure exactly what that part is, I have never seen anything like it before. And not being able to read Russian doesn't help much.

But the "Easy Clutch" kit was made for bikes manufactured from 1986 to 2005 and looks like this one on e-bay.

You can read a write up about it installed on a stock 2006 bike here.

You can also reduce the clutch effort by switching over to a hydraulic clutch system, but that costs a bit more than the "Easy Clutch".

That I can find, its available through J&P Cycles (in chrome) here,

http://www.jpcycles.com/Search/Produ...All&Ntt=Clutch ASSIST&Ns=DefaultSort&results=10&No=

or in black here;

http://www.jpcycles.com/Search/Produ...t=AMP%e2%80%99 Power Clutch&Ns=DefaultSort&results=10&No=

You can also check out these people as they seem to have European versions of their catalogs. I couldn't find an actual ad for the parts your looking for, but the maker lists them as a dealer.

Hope that helps you out.

Glad I could help.
If I were you I would seriously consider ordering a catalog from that wwag.com place.
If they can get parts for you easier over there it would be worth the cost.
