[QUOTE="Lutz, post: 846805, member: 25116"] It doesn't. All the retrofit autoclutches (EFM, REKLUSE, REVLOC) stay engaged once they engage. This requires 'clutchless' shifting, which done properly will not necessarily cause any more damage than proper 'clutched' shifting, if that is your concern. Based on the way they shift, I believe that the autoclutches that typically come stock in many ATVs and mini bikes do have a mechanism to disengage the clutch when shifting, but I have not actually torn into one to see how they operate. On the autoclutched ATVs and mini bikes I've ridden, I've found that you can slip the clutch by feathering the shifter just enough not to shift into the next gear. When I do this, it really does seem that the clutch is slipping and metering power, NOT that the transmission is simply in a false neutral position between gears. The stock type of autoclutch also tends to engage if the vehicle is rolling in gear, enabling bump starting a dead engine - this is a feature that the retrofit autoclutches lack, as far as I know.
