Honda today published on the official brand website the first information about the electronic clutch for motorcycles, the world’s first automatic clutch system* that controls the clutch of motorcycles, allowing smooth starts, gear changes, and stops without the need to activate the clutch lever.
With this E-Clutch, Honda uses electronic technology that allows instant and precise control of the clutch, thus achieving optimal performance in situations where driving force changes, for example, during starts, gear changes, and stops, resulting in smooth starts, gear shifts, and stops more natural than with manual clutch operation by the driver.
To adapt to as many driving situations as possible, this system can be used as a normal clutch system, just like on a regular motorcycle with a clutch, by activating the lever, even when the clutch is electronically controlled. This new type of clutch allows the system to be used by a greater number of drivers with different levels of experience and competence, from the novice to the most experienced, allowing the person to focus on the pleasure of driving, always in total comfort.
Being lightweight and compact, the system can be installed without making major changes to existing motorcycles, and Honda plans to install its E-Clutch in its FUN range over time.
