Cool. The slipper clutch on my Mazda works a little different. It starts slipping any time I give it more than 90% beans or if I'm going up a particularly steep hill in 4/5th gear.
Those ones are good for fuel economy
This type of slipper clutch has the added benefit of making it very difficult to stall. Good feature.
Haha, I had a 93 ford 1 ton diesel with a slipper clutch that only acted from a dead stop or under heavy loads. Think of all the torque I was able to avoid!!
Slow the oil leaks on to it for less slip, increase for more?
It makes intense burnout effects without stupid tires getting all used up c:

Understeer is when you go off of the cliff.
Oversteer is when you go off of the cliff at the same place, backwards.

😄. A very Matt-esque explanation. 👌
Understeer is when you can see the tree you're hitting.
If you can only hear it, that's Oversteer

Depends if the cliff is on the inside or outside of the corner. 😀
Oversteer is when my passenger spoils his pants, understeer is when I spoil my pants 😊
Nice lol
I am glad to know I am not the only one who takes apart brand new items, just to see how they work. Sometimes I even get them back together again.

"Hello, everyone. My name's Paul and I'm an alcoholic."
Mmmm sipper clutch
slipper sipper
Id rather drink everytime he says clutch
@@EmeliaBelle I'd hail that algorithm.
Looking forward to seeing how you integrate this into the Jag...
its most likely for the honda
edit: dont whooosh me
@@DarkIzo ;)
@@DarkIzo LoL for the edit
@@DarkIzo doesn't the engine in the honda have a slipper?
@@billbergen9169 This one is adjustable, like he said in the video...
....... another episode where Matt explains how technical doo-dads work with just the right amount of humor throughout 👍👍😎👍👍
The graphic of the bike leaving the track and bursting into flames made me laugh.
Stop making consistently good, interesting and amusing videos. Your wearing out the like button!
They have only themselves to blame if it wasn't sturdy enough.
When I bought a clapped out honda one late night in an alley it also had a slipper clutch
A dual direction slipper?
Also reduces the likelihood you will over-rev the engine on a downshift. I put a Yoyodyne on my Speed Triple. It's been awesome. That high compression engine would really give you an unsettling jolt if you flubbed a downshift cranking it into a turn.
Many years ago *Saab* had a manual transmission that included a *Sprague Clutch* . This device is like a slipper clutch w/o the plates. It is 100% engaged in one direction and 100% disengaged in the other. The engine would power the car forward but immediately drop to idle when the throttle was lifted. In rolling hills it gave an odd sensation of almost flying as you crested the hill and suddenly without the engine noise you were just floating down the other side. Some European EVs give the same sensation when set to make regen only with the brake pedal.
@@bibblybobbly9951 Probably one of the old 2-stroke models. Crankcase scavenged 2-strokes cannot easily tolerate being used for engine braking because they get lubrication from the fuel, being spun at high speed with the throttle closed basically starves the engine of oil with predictable consequences. So 2-stroke cars often used an overrun clutch to allow the engine to stay at idle speed on downhills.
An aside, sprag clutches are a near universal component of conventional automatic transmissions. They're used mostly so that the car isn't 'jerky' at low speeds- if you've driven a manual with a low first gear ratio you're probably familiar with the abrupt deceleration you get when you suddenly lift off the throttle in first. In a manual this can be avoided by using the clutch, in an auto there is of course no clutch pedal so some other solution is required.
@@nerd1000ify Yes, it was a two-stroke but I do not recall the model. This was in about 1980 and the car was not new. not my car.
The trabant 601 also has a device similar to this on 4th gear. Its also two stroke so it makes sense, they do not have an oil tank, its mixed with the fuel
This was actually super educational, I never understood how manuals can brake without braking till now. My friends tried to explain it, but now I get it.
First time I've ever understood a clutch system better than "magic." Kudos.
I enjoy the highly accurate and scientific scales on your graphs.
slipper and assist clutches are amazing, it should be standard on all motorcycles. prevents loss of traction during hard engine braking, and allows for lighter clutches
That is a quality company.
As an absolute mechanical sky-high idiot i can say: that was easy to digest.
Simple yet elegant mechanical solutions float my boat! I’ve never heard of this before but it’s on my favorite mech solution list from now on.
Great explanation. It also makes downshifting easier and more pleasant in normal riding on the street.
Best explanation I've seen so far. Thank you!
Another learning day for me..
Thank you for taking time to prepare and upload this video
Cool, I love learning new things. Thanks Matt
Learn something new every episode without fail. Thanks!
That is the best and most concise explanation of a slipper-clutch I've ever seen. Good on you!
YES! I learned something!
Excellent video.
Thanks Matt!
Clear, concise. Nicely done.
Great video--------------as usual!
Thanks for the explanation ! I always wondered how they work 👍
Fantastic video. Had to watch it without sound but still understood everything from the visuals and was laughing most of time 😅🤣👍👌
Thanks Matt!
I own a slipper clutch but hadn't really thought about how it works, until now. Thank you Matt!
👍🏻Thanks for all the good information!!!
Thank you for the explanation of slipper clutches. I thought I knew about them and how they work but alas turns out I only knew half of how they work.
Thank you for the insight and learning of slipper clutches. Now I need to go find my own slippers....
Thanks for explaining
I never released 'buttload' was a technically term. Thanks SFM - you learn something everyday. All hail the algorithm.
super fast, as always, thanks for the vid!
Thx for the info.
Oy.. wow ! Thank you Matt !!
[Preface: '04 Ducati 900ss/sp bike owner] .. always wanted to emulate/maintain period-correct FEEL of the bike.. visceral and exciting ! the End Goal' (something already there in stock form" .. quite a joy to experience..) the DANGER and EXCITEMENT is engineered into the fabric of the bike.
.. This video you've shared.. makes me want to install a slipper clutch unit .. and I'll enjoy it more than I thought it would.. enhancing the experience and feel of the ride..
Progress can be frustrating to come to terms with..
Learned something! Thanks
Lots of RC cars have slipper clutches too. Since the gears, driveshafts, and axles are typically plastic the slipper clutch helps reduce parts breakages when you hammer on the throttle from a stop since the electric motor is capable of producing a lot of torque.
I was just thinking last time I fiddled with a slipper clutch was on a R/C car back in the ‘90’s! And that was after I thought it wasn’t needed on vegetarian Jag…
I was clutching my slippers the whole time while watching this video.
All Hail and all that jazz! What university got your tuition, Matt? Most engineers I know couldn't have done that four minute explanation with graphs, details and video support in less than 45 minutes. Awesome, SFM! FR
Very cool. Thank you
Very cool, never heard of this, but I can see the need for it, esp on a motorcycle. Great video
I've genuinely always wondered how they worked, and never could be arsed to pull one apart.. So thank you for feeding my curiosity.
Genuinely interesting and new to me.
I'm not a huge bike guy buy any means. I fell down the youtube algorithm hole the other night.... found myself learning about the Honda Oval piston development in the 70s-80's & they mentioned using and developing a slipper clutch to eradicate & reduce bad compression spikes on downshifting in the 500CC 4 stroke race bikes and I wondered how such a device worked.
thanks Matt for explaining this :D
also much enjoying the Jag / Tesla build. Keep up the good work
I never realized how simple the mechanism was.
I don't race, I don't have a motorcycle or ever intend to get one, and I've only worked at the other end of the engine (computer, ignition, timing, etc.), but found this (especially your presentation) to be fascinating and really coherent.
Once you get the Jag put together, I will eagerly await your presentation of wheel alignment - should be a hoot.
A bit late to the party, this is such a great channel :D I think you can find those clutches on most bikes now. My cheap royal enfield 650 shockingly has one. It probably is the cheapest 650cc bike you can buy.
Outstanding description of a force that has kicked my ass on many occasions. Being a neophyte, I was unaware of the slipper clutch. Now I want one for my car! Cheers
You the man
"I did what I do when I get a new mechanical thing: I took it apart to see how it works." I think you are my spirit animal.
Was literally looking at slipper clutches for my CBR 600rr LAST NIGHT 😂
amazing video
You've probably thought about it but it would be cool to see an electric motorcycle build on here. Or even a video about why you wouldn't want an electric motorcycle (current technology, use case, etc).
I love the mix of bike and car information on this channel. Very interesting info. I have slid the tail on my bike after a downshift even with slipper clutch. Guess I should be glad it had one and I didn't have a worse scenario.
Samesies on the slide
I cant believe this slipped my viewing enjoyment!
Short, sweet and concise. Are you well?
Concise
All hail
Short, sweet, and to the point ... with a buttload of information ...
Omnes algorithmus salvete ...
Learn something new every time I watch! All Hail the Algorithm!!
lol just start dumping your clutch and you will get a slipping clutch for free
Unless you're in a car, not in a hurry... Wet, multi-plate clutches are extremely long wearing, even under sustained abuse.
nice vid thank you
Had one in my Ducati it was fantastic. I needed one in my Yamaha when I thought I was in 3rd downshifting into 2nd going into 9 at Brainerd. Turns out I downshifted into first and it flicked me over the bars.
Nice. Today I learned a new thing. 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
No outro about pleasing the algorithm? Where even am I?
All go rhythm 🥁
Thank you so much! I knew but I didn’t really “know” how a slipper clutch works. Thank you for being the person who spends the money and pulls it apart. Can you do a cable lubrication tool explanation next?😅
Cool. I barely understood that but i believe you.
i know perfectly how a slipper clutch works (as my motorbike has it), but matt uploads it, so i'll watch it.
Dang dude
Hi! Just wanted to add a tidbit, and apparently the thing that actually slows us down with an engine is actually the intake stroke when the throttle body is closed (you can test this if you have a car where the throttle is mechanically actuated) and while the compression stroke should the one that slows us down the most, the decompression that occurs when there's no combustion in the chamber aids the engine in keeping turning, just like a very lame combustion, so it cancels out.
I should not have watched this before work. Was drunk by the 2 minute mark of this video as per @SuperfastMatt's instructions to take a shot every time he says "Slipper Clutch"...
Gifted communicator brilliance, slick.
Adjustmennt is done by varying the thickness of the steel plates.
Now I no longer have to fake knowing how that works. Thank you. It’s amazing though how much you don’t have to know if you just nod.
I had a Honda VF750F with a spag clutch that achieved the same effect. A less common retro fit though I believe.
Wow, that's pretty cool. I never knew such a thing existed! Although I have zero motorcycle specific experience... ;)
I have a slipper clutch in my alternator pulley.
That was a superfast video Matt.
SO THATS WHAT THAT DOES!!
Yoyodyne!! at 40 seconds. Epic.
Thanks for the explain. These seem like a good idea and inexpensive so why are they not on more bikes? Is it only the more powerful ones that get the most from these?
(laughs in 2 cycle)
A slipper clutch would probably have saved me an embarrassing accident 20 something years ago that broke my forearm in half. You best believe a stock slipper clutch was a _major_ selling point when I chose my first new bike in 20 something years last year. My downshifts are so smooth these days. I'm sure it's all thanks to that slipper clutch though.
Can I get a tab for that bass riff for the transitions 😂😂😭??
Similar in principle to free wheel in older 2 stroke engines, like in SAAB.
Next video - How a Slipper Clutch Works but in a drag racing car
exactly. That is the only place i have seen slipper clutches used. then again i am not a motorcycle nerd :)
@@uliwehner same here😀
Completely different slip arrangement; the drag racing setup is a centrifugal clutch. Would probably need to wait until Matt goes drag racing (with an internal combustion engine, not electric).
Thank you! This was a question I've had for a while. Being generally stupid, I understand that clutch + slip = bad smell and dollars.
Jag . . . where's the Jag? 😀
I love how the entire video is basically about motorcycles and then the last 20 seconds he is sticking it in his car...
To be fair, my car is half motorcycle.
@@SuperfastMatt well aware... love your channel man keep making videos and I will keep watching them lol
All hail the algae rhythm!
Putting a slipper clutch into my flat track bike was the best mod I ever did. The bike basically auto drifts now.
cool vid, very informative without being excessively long or full of merch plugs or interaction reminders.
Is this the Thomas Pynchon Yoyodyne or the Buckaroo Bonzai Yoyodyne? Or are they one and the same?
Sorry Matt, I really don't care about the Jag, but I love these little detours!
I don't think I've ever seen clutch plates with intact pads. Every disassembled clutch I've seen was a flat fuzzy mess with some marks indicating where the friction pads used to be.
2:22 what is love, baby don't hurt me
