Hi guys im jessie brand spankin new to the board and already i want info... lol

Im looking for some info on motors that came with clutchless shift set ups.
I would need to know how to indentify thesse motors and if not to much trouble when and what they came in.

Little info

Im looking for "hopefully" 500cc motor or larger for a custom go cart i am in the process of building.
Befor i start welding a frame to gether i need a motor. Any info on older/newer what to lok for or avoid would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks alot in advance.....

 

To list all the combos would be impossible. What you need to look for is the term SEMI MANUAL in your search . Just about every tranny to come along in a 4 wheel drive ATV is either has a full auto or a "clutchless" manual.

 

I wasnt realy looking for a breakdown of all of them ever made.
I was looking for some info on better ones or lesser stuff to avoid.
Mabey a recomendation on what ones might cost less be easy to find.
Who makes higher power rated motors. that type of stuff.

Any info is help full thanks.

 

If you are basing the motor on a motorcycle engine... I can't for th elife of me think of why you would use the clutch for anything other than starting out.. once it gets rolling, you don'[t need no stinking clutch.....

You might try looking at the sports car guys... a guy named Lee Stohr, is building a D Sports racer that used a Yamaha R1 and has a paddle shift settup on his steering wheel... definately the way to go... He has a web page, just do a yahoo search for Stohr DSR...

 

UHHHHG... Ok i never said anything about using a motorcycle engine.


Listen guys all i ever wanted was some make and models of ATV's that use the clutchless shifting set up. where you still have to shift but not use a clutch.
THATS IT

 

for instance my yamaha wolverine. automatic clutch. bullet proff rock solid reliable[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

250cc engines with auto clutch tranny that are easy to find:
Honda 250EX
Honda Recon 250
Suzuki Z250
Suzuki Ozark 250
Yamaha Beartracker/Timberwolf 250

400cc engines with auto clutch tranny that are easy to find:
Suzuki Eiger 400 manual
Yamaha Kodiak 400 and 450(i think you can get it in a manual)
Arctic Cat 400i
Yamaha Wolverine 350cc

500cc engines with auto clutch tranny that are easy to find:
Suzuki Vinson manual 500
Arctic Cat 500i manual

I'm sure this isn't all of them, these are just off the top of my head and easy to find.

 

your the man exactly what i was looking for.

Thank you very much.
