Pro Circuit launch control - what's it do?

[Firebalsocal]

I was asked on what I thought of the pro circuit launch control and have honestly never heard of it. I looked it up on pro circuits website and the site gives little info on the item. I can't find an email addy to ask pro circuit either.

Can anyone tell me what it does, how it mounts, why anyone would need one, and especially your thoughts if you have used one?

Its to hold the front suspension down on the starts, it makes the weight transfer less on the launch.I dont use one as i cant reach over my bike to set it:(

Yep, you are less likely to wheelie coming off the line. It is set up to disengage when you hit the first bump. I've never used used one but they must help because you see them on the pro's bikes.
