If I wanted a scooter, I'd get one.
It's still a manual and the lever still functions as a lever, unlike other ACs this one even has the ability to bump start with a couple turns of the adjuster. The clutch shines on tighter technical stuff. If a person were to live on pavement and gravel roads ignore the Rekluse. If you want to explore some single track???

I for one am happy Rekluse is taking their time getting it right and that someone with the engine mods is doing the testing. If soomeone wanted a lighter pull after install I would recomend a hydraulic clutch because she is much firmer once installed, but since it is the rare moment you pull the lever in it is no big deal.

If my YZ450F is a scooter, I reckon I'm "Scooter Trash"

I have just put a Rekluse EXP in my XT660R even though Rekluse would have you beleave
they don't make them for the XT660... But they do..just list it as a WR450 EXP..
The XT660 & WR450 share the same friction plates...
now I have just got to get it tuned in for the lower/slower reving XT motor..
Going to try the heavy wedge weights..But it works pretty dam good as it is now..
