What is the function of a motorcycle clutch?
1 Answers
The function of a motorcycle clutch is to enable smooth engagement between the engine and the transmission, transferring power to the transmission. Below is a detailed introduction to the two working states of the clutch: 1. Disengaged state: When the clutch lever is pulled, the pressure originally applied to the driving and driven friction plates is released. The driving friction plates, which rotate with the engine, and the driven friction plates, which rotate with the transmission's input shaft, change from an engaged state to a separated state, cutting off power transmission. 2. Semi-engaged state: In this state, the driving and driven friction plates are neither fully engaged nor completely separated, resulting in a partially interrupted power transmission.
