auto clutch means you still use a foot shifter but theres no clutch to pull. also the shift pattern is just goin up unlike with a manuel clutch you shift down from neutral to get to first gear.

ditto! Alot of the older quads use to have these with the smaller cc engines. Like the Honda TRX 125, 200sx, fourtrax 250, ect;

The auto clutch is used on a lot more than small displacement atvs. It was used on most utilites and lots of 200-300cc displacement sport bikes. It is still used on the honda 450, 350, and 250 bikes. the suzuki vinson 500, most arctic cats, a few midsized yamahas and more. Its a great idea and is very reliable. it also supplies much more control of the power in trails and under load.
