PD Simplified : Slipper Clutches
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 вер 2021
- Slipper clutches, like any other motorcycle aid, help better the riding experience by pardoning the mistakes. A slipper clutch prevents the rear wheel from locking up and hopping when you make a downshift too aggressively or time it badly. On today’s episode of PD Simplified, Shumi explains how the slipper clutches work.

Hey #PDArmy, we hope this helped you understand slipper clutches! Do give the video a Like and let us know below what more you'd like us to simplify.
Please guide on choosing riding gears specifically on Riding jacket/Pants/boots like you did previously on helmet. There are few different types and quality in the market but choosing one out of them seems a bit of a hassle for first time buyers as like me.
Morning class by Shumi Sir🙂
❤️❤️
Would love to see a video on front vs rear tyres on a motorcycle and the pros and cons of using a rear tyre in the front when some odd front tyre sizes are unavailable

No matter what series you start or stop.. please don't stop the simplified series. It actually intrigues the motorcyclists in us who genuinely want to know how our beloved motorcycles run... Thank you Professor Shumi!
Sir yes sir!
Hey, engine braking and rev-matching while downshifting, would be a good thing to explain, I think!
Absolutely
yes it should have been atleast mentioned in this video once. and explained 20 sec.
It would require like a visual demonstration for better understanding
If I have a slipper clutch do I need to do the rev matching?
@@saurabhkakde3502 Rev matching is more fun but technically it reduces the penalty for not doing it. My 19 zx6 is supposed to have one but twice now when I had a "Shift event" the rear tire definitely broke lose both times so I'm not sure exactly how much back torque its supposed to limit.
It definitely helps when aggressively downshifting during an emergency braking on the steets
I would strongly suggest riding better so that emergency braking isn’t a common feature at all 🤣
On Indian roads, you can only do so much yourself. One needs to account for others' mistakes as well.
@@shu_mar emergency braking also consist of areas where brake fade occurs. One can engine brake and slow down without have to even touch any of your brakes. In hilly areas where one have to rely too much on brakes engine braking can be used. Also one also must take care of the speed themselves at the first place to increase the window where one has more time to react and take steps based on it.
@@shu_marI think you missed his point. You should always drive/ride carefully, but also put in mind there are careless drivers/riders still on the road even careless pedestrians.
That's why manufacturers added these features on Bikes so riders can be safe.
@@shu_maremergency brakes are for avoiding retard or animal on the road. You never know what you gonna get. Unless one would willing to ride extremely slow to the point of emergency braking necessity would be nullified, sure. You do you
Hi professor shumi 😅
Hi professor hobby 😅 (translated to english)

Thanks for sharing, i used to think uni-directional quickshifter and slipper clutch offers similar solution.
I know basic working and principal of slipper clutch but shumi you explained it in detail very smoothly.. You are actually master at your work ..Keep making videos like this and keep us educated.
You are the 5th video I watched on this subject; you, by far, did it the best. Thank you so much.
Maybe a series on regular/preventive maintenance of bikes/cars?
yes pls
Yes that would really be appreciated
Kudos Shumi. The mythbuster!
🍻
Great way of explaining shumi, complicated slipper clutch can't be explained more simple than yours
silpper clutch is the most useful part and seafty feature to have on your motorcycle, rather than other gimmicky stuff. (i have mt15)
This has happened with me , I was in 4th gear cruising around 50-60 and suddenly uncle in front of me stopped his santro out of nowhere.
There was less than 1/2 meter distance between me and the car, I panicked and started downshifting and also applied hard break. Of course I fell down my helmet savedme my bike got damaged and uncle drove off without even seeing what happened at back.
If my bike had sleeper clutch this wouldn't have happened.
Thank you Shumi for explaining this, I'm definitely going to buy my next bike with slipper clutch
PS : I was riding avenger 220
Glad to hear you are safe!
@@powerdriftofficial ❤
One query here, won't the slipper clutch reduce the strain on the sprockets during down shifts
Which in turn increases the life of sprocket as well drive chains ?
I would say kind of...slipper clutch will reduce the strain on the chain
Yup. But chains and sprockets last so long this is hardly a big advantage
That was so effortlessly and brilliantly explained for someone who just bought a new cycle. thanks!
Still awaiting the simplified version of power Vs torque
We will make that , Adithya!
As a beginnerr and learning bike it will be big help 😂
Thank you shumi. To make us understand about slipper clutch system
🍻
Always wanted to know about Slipper Clutches... Tried every possible portal... But it is really 'Simplified'.
Cheers!!
🍻
This video reminded me of my automobile lecturer from my old engineering days thank you sumi sir
Thank you PowerDrift for explaning this
Hi Shumi, I love this series and am waiting for the video explaining revv matching. You are doing amazing work sir. Thanks ..😀😀
Simplified on : Hand ergonomics and foot positioning.
(Ps- aware that there was a video on reducing body aches on motorcycle which did touch did topic, but would really like a simplified guide in this)
All the data you need is already in that video!
Is there a threshold of the reverse torque to activate the slipper clutch? , I have adv250 enabled with the slipper clutch, I have tried downshift at a slightly high speed and I felt the engine braking clearing
Wonderful Shumi 🤩 Very simply put together, Thanks 👍😊
Thank you!
Thank you Shumi and PD for taking this topic.
Always happy to help! :D
Finally quality content from PD
Awesome contents covered in the simplified, would it possible to have one made on types of petrol that is normal vs premium vs octane boosters. And which to be used in what categories of motorcycle.
Thank you
Can I use half clutch for down shifting of gear mainly in traffic, this is on my Honda highness cb350.
Very clearly explained!! Thanks a lot!
Always wanted to search for a video that explained this, but never got around to it. Thank you!
Always happy to help, Rishi! :D
🍻
Love the way you present. Also the idea of demystifying technical matters so well is laudable. Could you pls talk about bike engines and number of cylinder and their significance? Higher displacement bikes have 2-3 cylinders, not just one...Also, incase of some entry level performance bikes such as 300 cc, most are single cylinder but a few twin cylinder, why is that? What difference does it make...Thanks
Good suggestion, Sumeet.
Can do!
Question :
I have a 2022 ninja Kawasaki, at the first gear, it very jerky despite raving very slowly. Which clutch unit would be better for, a slipper or grip clutch
Do you have any sound while up and down shifting of gears…? Especially in 3rd gear(Clunky sound)
Thank you i think applications of quick shifter are only limited while on track or while having drag race
So I've got a question. I own a TVS Apache RR 310. It has a Race Tuned Slipper Clutch. So lately I've been using my clutch less and less and what i have noticed is that in the slipper clutch we can just blip the throttle lightly and the gear shifts! And this happens in both directions. Up and down. Very smoothly it happens. I saw people shifting this way in RC 390s and R3s. So I too started practicing it. The gear shifting is smooth. Be it downshifts or upshifts. So i should not be concerned about using the clutch right? Or damaging something inside? Please answer. I honestly have heard about it lately so i do not know about this matter. Thoda middle class question hai. 😅😂
Beautifully explained! Bravo!
Does the downshift also use the ignition miss or is any hydraulic movement of the clutch down to enable the downshift. Thanks
So wats a torque assisted clutch as mentioned in a triumph speed twin..? Is it better than slipper clutch
i keep the clutch lever pressed when lowering speeds or braking..is this a gud habit.?
Shumi has everyone in his CLUTCHES !!!! KINDLY ADJUST 😂
🤣
Simplified helped me a lot in terms of understanding my bike and how to improve my riding by following those small tips.
Please can you make a video for Clutch. How many fingers we should use? 1/2/ all 4?
Just like a video of using the Break.
Thank you.
Really well explained, thank you.
Please explain us about slipper clutch and auto blipper, can both be in the bike or only one will do or both. Pl explain to us in detail ASAP.
really simplified, as always rocking Shumi
Thanks!
Does it helps to reduce jerks if we downshift, release clutch too quickly without accelerating.
Is slipper clutch a disadvantage for off-road focused bikes? I use the heavy downshift to slide and turn all the time and i don't feel that downshift skids are unsettling.
Please explain abt different types of riding gear for different purposes like track, road and off road and why are they designed such way.
I genuinely appreciate these videos. Thanks Shumi. & powerdrift.
Thank you Deepesh! We have more for you guys!
🍻
I like this type of short videos, it increases my knowledge day by day, thnaks pro.shumi...👍
🍻
Sir going to buy a used duke 390 ... Shall I go for the slipper clutch model or the regular one.. (I'm not going to track ride the bike.. I'm taking it for daily use)
Great video, subscribed.
Does slipper clutch make noise?
Just got my My RTR 200 4V today and it makes krrr krrr sound while downshifting and when I release throttle
Is it normal?
Question : Engine types single cylinder, twin and so on and cc of bikes?
Thanks, I finally understand slipper clutches ❤️😂
Thanks for your efforts really appreciate it shumi sir❤️👍
Thanks guys the video about the slipper clutch was very useful 🤩👍. ❤
Is their any info about the upcoming Yamaha R15V4 and the R15 M?
Go check it out.. it's already launched
All the info you need coming up. Meanwhile, do check it out on instagram.com/powerdrift
@@powerdriftofficial 😍😍❤🤟.
What about engine braking while riding steep downhills? Will it work?? And while riding on snow ,brakes locks rear wheels but engine braking dont,will it work then?
Is rev matching req in a motorcycle with slipper clutch or doing it will damage the clutch?
I adjusted my throttle handle on my ninja 400. Kawasaki but, I still have a jerky ride when towing and reengaging the throttle, will a slipper clutch help ??
Now I got it ...... clearly....thanks for sharing information
Most welcome 😊
Question: do we press the slipper clutch lever differently than a regular clutch - don't need to press the lever all the way?
Shumi sir I have a question... Does slipper clutch reduce , engine braking to 0? Or the engine braking is reduced to some extent... And in higher capacity sports bike we have different levels of engine braking..does that counter the work of slipper clutch? @powerdrift
I have been using the slipper clutch on rtr 200
Rode abt 28k kms on highway
I will say it takes away just 15/20% of the engine braking bt just the jerk part of it .....while shifting from 5th gear speed of 80 to the 4th gear .....it takes away the jerk bt still manages to engine brake
@@vinayakmadhav1514 ok that's great but have you tried ...rapid gear changes.. like going from 5th to 3rd
No. Not zero. Engine brake control is a totally diff tech though meant to preserve chassis attitude in the turn entry phase.
Very informative keep it coming
your explanation is really very simplified. keep making such videos.
Thanks Pranav!
This is was my self also thought abt. Do actually we need a slipper clutch in our daily commute?
Can we install slipper clutches in bikes that comes without slippr clutch?
The topic i was waiting for 🤩
Would it be smart for me to install a slipper clutch on my very first bike, and learn on it? What could be some of the disadvantages by doing this?
Very nicely explained.
If i had professors like this in my college then i would have paid much more attention to studies.😂😅
One day I'm gonna build a Bike with Nothing but Knowledge from Simplified!
Very informative & simplified ❤️
I'm not sure if you've already done this, but can you please do a power vs torque, it's application in motorcycles, and tuning a motorcycle for power/torque at different rpms video?
Can slipper clutch decrease engine braking? and is it good or bad?
Very well explain clear and concise, Thank you.
Does it mean that the engine breaking will be weaker for a bike with slipper clutch ?
Will slipper clutch help cause less damage to the clutch plate if we make aggressive clutch release during acceleration.?
Hi guys , recently i came across a bajaj branded plug and play slipper clutch for rc 200 and duke 200... Have anyone tried this?how's the quality?
Thank you so much for the knowledge ❤️
You are so welcome! :D Cheers!
Can we upshift or downshift without using the clutch?will it cause any damage to the motorcycles?
Installed a slipper clutch and a hydraulic system to make it even easier in traffic !
Very Well Explained Sir!!
Thank you sir and PD for this
Happy help you! :D
🍻
The way you explain stuff. ❤
I was waiting for this... 😍
Finally a simple explanation ! Now I get it!!!
Good explanation
I have heard that during break failures, if you down shift it automatically slows the bike down. So in a bike equipped with the slipper clutch this wouldn't be possible?
The effect would be less, yes. But unless you’re ignoring your brake’s maintenance, failures are very very rare now
The James May of Indian automotive journalism...
Good work man.
Thanks Adarsh!
@@shu_mar S'H'UMIMASEN 😁😁
..plz make a video on the differance of performance in inlines and V engines, v configuration makes a lot of torque across the rev range whereas inlines perform better at specific revs, which r better !! Pros and cons etc??. I personally luv the ducati l twins. Rode a scrambler and blown away how she was throwing me backward with a slight nudge of the thrrotle on almost all the revs and all the gears .😊😊😊
Thank you power drift....that was insightful.....I had a confusion.....even though an auto blipper is engineered differently......how is the end functioning result of slipper clutch different from that of auto blipper
Lets make this clear
The quickshifter allows u to down n upshift withouth the use of clutch lever
And the slipper clutch lets u downshift smoothly while taking away the jerk which u recieve after downshift
So the end results are
Quickshifter - shifting while accelerating without the use of clutch
Slipper clutch - downshift becomes smoother......so while taking on traffic ....like really hard....u dont have to engage on brakes .....just downshift and continue to accelerate
Quickshifter can be understood ....bt slipper clutch.....u need to experience it
Do check this out - ua-cam.com/video/wiZ3oiWvtXs/v-deo.html
@@powerdriftofficial thank you.....it was very helpful....really appreciate it
@@vinayakmadhav1514 u r correct for the most part..... except for the fact that you quickshifter can only do upshift.....for downshift you need an autoblipper
An autoblipper facilitates fast downshifts. A slipper clutch prevents the wheel from locking up on aggressive downshifts. It’s not the same thing
I want to know how 2 best upshift in downshift in every situation.
First time ever I saw Shumi fumble #SiplerClutch @4:23 :D Lots of love for Shumi :) #PDArmy
Hi Shumi, Thank you, it was helpful. Will this feature be helpful while riding downhill. Engine braking is very effective during emergency in down hill section, slipper clutch equipped motorcycles are less effective at this scenario comparing to equipped one.
There’s no need! Use your brakes! Engine braking on downhill is an idea from a time when brakes were n not this good
@@shu_mar Thank you Shumi.
This was a fantastic learning ... Choosing Slipper clutch for me would only be the convenience of using the clutch ...
Glad we could help!
Hi...thanks for the slipper clutch video !...next could you explain about Rekluse clutch which are normally seen in ktms and huskies...the relevance or its absence here in our market :)
Hello pd , please do a video on scrap policy and will it affect vintage bikes? ... 🙏🙏
Before watching, i had always a doubt regarding operations of slipper clutches.. M sure it would cleared after watching..👍
Happy to help :D
@@powerdriftofficial 😀
Yet another masterclass from the legend himself!! So happy to see these type of videos coming out!! Absolutely love them!!
I wanna know about different types of motorcycle engines with terminology such as inline engines and which one we have to chose.
Can do!
Is it true that Engine braking is does not work at all with slipper clutch?
