And yes, the rumor is in the market! There is no official announcement fromKTM India till now, but different sources have informed and claimed that the company is planning to introduce the slipper clutch for theRC Motorcycles.
It has turned into a convention to utilize slipper clutch as a part of Moto GP racing motorcycles. Today, a large portion of the elite motorcycles utilize the slipper clutch, for example, the few accessible in India - the Yamaha R1, Suzuki Hayabusa and the Honda VFR1200F and so on. The Kawasaki Ninja 300 likewise gets a slipper clutch which separates it from the Duke 390 which misses out on the same.
So what actually is the basic concept behind the Slipper clutch and how does it actually help or set the motorcycle apart from the ones which does not have it? The answer to this is that the main concept behind slipper clutch is to control the rear wheel against locking in during downshifts which can result in rear wheel locking and lose its traction or momentum.
With the utilization of ordinary clutches, the engine braking power is sent to back wheel through a chain drive or shaft drive which causes the back wheel to lose traction with a jolt. However, the slipper grip, otherwise called the back torque limiter grasp, aids by permitting the clutch to partially slip until the engine pace matches the motorcycle's speed. So the rider can downshift forcefully while holding the bike steady under heavy braking.
The new sipper clutch will be a striking new expansion for the RC motorcycles, if introduced. This extraordinary specialized redesign will just add to the fervor of the prospective purchasers as these motorcycles will get more roads friendly and safe.
