No,we're just getting started. This is for those that hate to pull a clutch lever. We installed Recluse automatic clutches in a lot of Ktm dirt bikes. Newer generation are even more sophisticated than the older models.Not just for lazy people,but serious riders also.

We even sold the old 87-88(last two years of production) Husky 430 full auto. Had a wire loop lever you just pulled under the carb to kick it into gear,then it shifted three times at full speed,back off and it down shifted for ya.. Did have a few problems with 3rd gear on these things,but the transmission just came out one side,didn't have to split the engine

I found an old post from 2009 regarding Revloc having custom-built an auto-clutch for a fellow with an XR400. Maybe I'll chase that lead as well. Auto-clutches make a great trail bike practically unstoppable.

Thanks.

4T cycle oil should be fine as it was designed for motorcycles with wet clutches in mind.
