recluse clutch (centrifugal) does anyone know anything about these, a bike on trademe I have in my watch list has been fitted with one, not sure I'm interested in it anymore.
I assume its the same setup as some of the smaller dirt bikes eg. klx110 xr50 no clutch lever or have I got it totally wrong. but how would that go with something like this WR250. Would it be a good Idea

Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

hey John, these are great for trail riding and tight stuff, but not so good for MX.
I have ridden a YZF250 with one, and it was a bit strange, but one great benifet is you cant stall

My old boss had one in a WR250F. Being the hard core (goat)trail rider he liked the non stalling thing.Originally Posted by oldguy
From memory the Recluse can be engage point-revs can adjusted?
I'm not sure about that.
But if you like tight twisty and gnarly trails I think they're a good idea.

Sounds like cheating to me.

well its back on the watch list again, my only fear is that you get put in the same category as a person who drive an automatic, a man drives a manual car, and his bike has a clutch lever, not some kiddy type or leaner bike
on a serious note, thanks guys.

I have a rekluse z start pro on my rmz450 and it is awsome you still have total clutch control, perfect traction out of corners, no stalling and can start in gear,i use manily for cncc just makes it so much easier in the tight stuff.

how would one of these go shod with street tyres?
Or would they be too clumbersome/ hard suspension on the road?

OK guys, back on this rekluse clutch thing again. back when I first posted up about a WR250 on trademe, which was fitted with the rekluse clutch system, at the time I thought i had won it, only to be contacted by the owner, saying he was sorry but he had sold it 2 days earlier, and hadn't removed the auction.
May be it was a good thing. almost 12 months later I have an RMZ instead,
I'm thinking again (could be dangerous) about getting one fitted to the RMZ.
What I want to know.
1 are they available here or would one have to import.
2 the most important part, how much do they cost???

youd be able to get one
2) fucken expensive 1400 + (correct me if im wrong)
bonus is- that you have your back brake connected to left lever for wicked control. met a guy with a christini with one but dont think$$$$$$ was an issue

well at that price I think I'll just have to harden up and ride as it is.

I was just thinking about making a leaver to connect my back brakes to my clutch.
Where's the ride?
PM marks if he doesn't chime in, he has fitted rekluse auto clutches to several of his adventure & trail bikes.
I fear if I get one, I'll lose all clutch skills. Yep, sounds like cheating to me
Cheers,
Colin
