 Honda E-Clutch System

The E-Clutch system allows riders to shift gears using the foot lever without engaging the handlebar-mounted clutch, though the lever remains operational for those who prefer manual control. The system also functions as a quick-shifter for both upshifts and downshifts, enabling clutchless, full-throttle gear changes. Additionally, riders can select from three operational feel settings—Hard, Medium, or Soft—to adjust the force required on the shift pedal for gear changes. The E-Clutch system weighs less than 4.5 lbs and operates through an actuator unit with two motors situated inside the right-hand engine cover. It manages clutch engagement and disengagement, as well as ignition timing and fuel injection, for smooth, shock-free shifting in any situation .
