SAFETY WARNINGS
Doc ID: 192-290
Doc Revision: 081211
Since any Rekluse auto clutch will make your bike appear to be in neutral when in fact it is in gear, it can move
suddenly and unexpectedly if the operator applies the throttle with the bike in gear. Do not apply excessive throttle to
the bike until you are certain the transmission is in neutral. When putting the bike in gear, make sure the engine has
reached idle speed and the brake is applied.
If your throttle sticks open, use the kill switch to stop the engine.
Downhill riding with higher auto clutch engagement speeds requires adjustments to your riding style. For example,
coming over the top of a hill in first gear and slowing to the point that the Rekluse auto clutch disengages the clutch,
your motorcycle will now be “free-wheeling” down the hill. With higher auto clutch engagement speeds, engine
speed engages the Rekluse auto clutch, not wheel speed. It may be possible to reach very high speeds coming
down a hill in a very low gear. When throttle is applied, the Rekluse auto clutch will engage suddenly. In this
situation, severe compression braking could cause an accident or engine damage.
WARNING
Clutches are subject to fail during normal use. Clutch failure could cause the rear wheel of the motorcycle to lock up
while the vehicle is in motion. Should this happen, it may cause the operator to lose control of the motorcycle
causing property damage, personal injury, or loss of life. Always take appropriate safety precautions when riding
your motorcycle, including, but not limited to, proper training to handle emergencies, proper safety gear, and proper
motorcycle maintenance.
