open the thorttle it moves.. close it and it stops... but you still have a manual clutch.. when the revs are up the EXP unit has exspnded & driveing , pulling the clutch disangauges the like normal.. close the thoutle to change gear or use the clutch as normal... i have only riden a Suzuki DRZ 400 with a rekluse in it...the XTR will be interesting.... For the XT I think I will most lightly need the heavy wedge kit but I will try the med weight wedges with the light springs to start with but I think it might not ingauge early enough.. The unit come with 3 spring weights & heavyer main clutch springs...

What rev range do you imaging is the neutral range with the rekluse?
Be sure to let us all know how this goes! Maybe even a video to demonstrate would be great! I've had a look around youtube, but it's mostly on smaller bikes. |

I looked at the Z start... but the XT has a diffrent clutch hub
to the WR.......prob wouldn't have fitted.. Have you seen the "Revloc dyna ring" auto clutch..

It's up & running... takes some getting use to...
keep useing the clutch...30 year habbit.. Seems ok with the med weight wedges & light springs.. Set it with very slight clutch drag at idle as Rekluse recommend. It starts to drive just off idle with full engaugement at few 100 rpm more...no sign of slip once it has full engaugement. you can see it compressing the clutch springs as it exspands the play in the clutch lever increass.. So it's able to apply more pressure on the clutch stack than the clutch springs are able to but the spring sort of goven the pressure it dose apply.. So is it a good thing... yer I think it is... Going for a good ride up the hill 2morrow give it a work out...

the first real ride with it today...
yer don't realise how much you rely on the engine brakeing till yer haven't got it... the rekluse has engine brakeing till the clutch speed drops then it disengauges the bike free wheels took a bit of getting use to.. but it's no real drama when you do.. the type of terrain i was rideing 2day prob wasn't a true test for it but the couple of sections that were tight single track up & down hill it was great just close & open the throttle in and out of the turns so easy...The rear wheel now needs a bit more thottle to make it brake traction.. which was good on the very few muddy bit I rode today.. As it's set at the moment the bike is a bit slower accelerating but still more than fast enough to get yer in the _ _ _ _ I going to try the heavyer wedges see it it will have a more positive lock up as well as heavy duty clutch springs to make better use of the force it's able to produce... I thinks it's a good thing... just got to get it set up for the XT motor..as it's set for a faster/higher reving wr/yz450 as it came......

I went for a ride on some tight single tracks where the XTR is a real hand full normaly.. A couple of section though the forest over sliprey moss covered rocks/tree roots that never see any sun..All I can say is the Rekluse clutch made the XT almost rideable in there.. I was rideing with a
few 2 strokes KDX 200 , RM ,YZ etc..even though I still couldn't stay with them they were always within sight... tight single track stuff is where the Rekluse comes into it own.. A lot of the turns around trees are so tight the bike is almost crawing up it's own exhaust pipe.. with the clutch in 1st gear it just of/on the gas no clutch sliping as with the manual clutch.. The rear wheel dosn't want to spin up so easy with the Rekluse's "more controlable" I can't see any real benifit from the rekluse for open gravel roads etc.. But it's not to bad around town in traffic etc..

How is the rekluse with heavier wedges? Any slipping in higher gears?
Any signs of premature plate wear as others have come accross? |
