    No, its for stopping on the side of a steep hill climb to find out if your, non-rekluse, buddy is ok from the fall he took, only to dent his swingarm, and take off again without falling or spinning the wheel(unless you can get points for roosting him).

    I assumed uphill. I don't look back on downhills, i figure eventually gravity will get you down the hill if you can't do it yourself

    yes there is a lot of fishing going on in this thread. ;-) i was as skeptical as anyone before i installed one on my own bike and rode with it long enough to understand what it's capable of doing. i have now had it in my bike for well over a year and won't be taking it out. if you are even remotely interested in a rekluse, take advantage of their 30 day no questions asked return policy. they will let you try one for 30 days and if you don't think it's worth what you paid for it...send it back to them for a full refund.

    for the fishermen among us, nathan woods with his clutch skills rode to a 2nd place finish in the 2007 endurcross with a rekluse z-start auto clutch. on a sad note however it was on a kxf!

    Ridden without one since '68 until a year ago .. you're not too old to learn new tricks Senior Smith.

    This doesn't qualify for taking the bait :roll:
