You will not believe how preoccupied you can be with the duty to connect the engine and rear wheel until you ride an auto
clutch.
Just had my first ride with the z-start clutch and I am amazed at how much more fun my bike is to ride. There is about 2 inches of crusty snow on the ground here, making the first test all the more interesting. I found that i could focus more on the trail and pick better lines when not worrying about stalling or being carefull with the clutch to maintain traction. My lever is still there and works great but i didnt need to put so much as a finger on it all day!! arm pump??? never heard of it... i noticed i was holding on a lot looser and riding more relaxed.
Riding in tight, rocky, log strewn woods is like driving in rush hour traffic, stop and go-stop and go. The clutch always felt like a burden to me and im glad to see it go.
As far as the quality of the product, I am happy so far. It seems to be made very well and does not require the removal of the entire clutch, just the cover and pressure plate. Ive had mine apart 3 times to fine tune the engagement, now takes me about 30 min.
Orerall, the best mod ive done to any of my bikes!
