I'm just not feeling it. Unless you have some sort of disability not shifting some how takes something out of the cycle riding. The centrifugal clutch type thing reminds me of riding a mini bike at 5 years old, fun at the time....but getting that first real bike with a clutch and gears, that was the shit.

For lack of a better analogy, if you have never been laid you will never know what pussy feels like. It’s not the same as jacking off when you were 5 years old, may feel good but not the same :lol: Now the EFM clutch works just as good or better than a stock and in some cases better than aftermarket clutches. I know of riders that have this set up on their Harley's. You still have to use the lever to get the bike in gear and shift as well. However, you don't have to pull the lever in to keep the bike from stalling while sitting at a traffic light. It can be in whatever gear you want 1st 2nd, 3rd, just give it the gas and away you go. I like 1st gear for taking off :D. What I like is that it comes with a life time warranty for workmanship and material. The other thing I like is that should your cable bust, you can start it and kick it in gear without the use of the lever, the bike won't stall and you can always get home from where ever you. The other thing is that if you get caught in traffic you left hand won't fall off by the end of the day.

I have a Rekluse Auto Clutch on my wife's Trike and it works great. The moral of the story being that the difference between getting your first piece of pussy and the ole right hand is like night and day. Kind of like getting your first Auto Clutch on a bike :lol: :lol: :roll:

Carlos :lol: :lol: :roll:

You still have to shift correct?? It's not an automatic?? It might be like speed shifting without a pull on the clutch:D

Yes you still have to shift, its an auto clutch not an automatic Transmission.

Pingel sells a power shifter that is set up on RPM's, much like those used for drag racing. You set it to shift automatically at whatever RPM's want it to shift or you can shift manually when you want to. The Tranny takes a beating for sure, with a power shifter.

Boy Carlos you have a way with words, if your ever in PA come look me up. If they are so good why doesn't everyone use one, better yet, why don't they come stock on Harleys. I still like my stock hard pull clutch. I can ride pretty well after 40 years, don't have a problem stalling at traffic lights, on inclines, doing burnouts or any other time.

To each it's own, I didn't mean to offend anyone I was just having fun :D. I like the hard pull of the clutch too, (and that is all I like hard besides tits :lol:) but what I don't like is that the dogs go through clutch cable like I go through socks. I have spent big bucks to get the dog home because the cable snapped (twice). This clutch seem to be the answer to one of problems or I can go hydraulic for about the same price.

I guess this type of clutch is fairly new technology and probably one reason why others don't have one or why they are not standard equipment on todays bikes, all I know is I like it and I will have one within the next two weeks or so.

When I commuted with it on it was really nice in stop and go traffic.

Then I got on the other bike that did not have it. That is when I really found out how much I liked it.

Carlos, after you get the EFM clutch installed and put some miles on it, would you please give all of us a report. The short video on their website was really interesting.

I have two questions, what is the stall speed (I was an NHRA national record holder running a 1966 chevy II with a powergulide that had a Marvin Ripes 5000 rpm stall speed torque converter) & can you still use the engine for braking?

There's a good question. What happens when you downshift or let off the throttle? Do the r's go to idle?

If you let it below about 1200 it goes to idle. It will still engine brake above that.

Even the Rekluse auto clutch I have on the Wife's trike will engine brake. I found out the hard way. I was doing about 30 and dropped into 1st gear as I getting ready to make a turn and as soon as I let the clutch out I almost went over the dam handle bars. So believe me it will engine brake above idle speed.

OK, Baker open primary installed, autoclutch basket installed. Feels wrong and doesn’t work properly… Open the basket comes, all looks good. Exept one aluminum part, that doesn’t seem to have any function. Friend with better english calls EFM, they have no idea what part he is talking about… Seems there was an extra piece inside when the basket came back from EFM! We left it out, now it seems to start working… Some adjusting still to do and we’ll see how I like it…
