    Checking their website it looks interesting. It might be something I would consider in the future mainly to get the clutch cable off of the bars. Keep us informed as to what you do.

    Does sound interesting, especially for Laura... the reason she quite riding her own is her arthritis doesn't allow her to work the clutch lever.

    Here is the link to their website...     www.efmautoclutch.com/ />

    After some thinking I have a concern. How does it work when downshifting. I usually use the engine for braking assist and would have to know exactly how this works. Is it centrifugal or is it similar to a torque converter?

    Rex, they answer your ?'s on the website.

    You have more holding power with the EFM auto clutch than any other type on the market. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th gear burnouts can be done with ease. You still have to shift, you can use the manual clutch to shift, or just relax the throttle to up shift, and blip to down shift.

    You can still use the clutch normally but takes less effort.
