Jakarta –
Honda launched the latest Honda 500 Series E-Clutch in Thailand. The two newest Series E-Clutch models introduced in the White Elephant country are the Honda CBR500R E-Clutch and Honda NX500 E-Clutch. With this technology, the driver’s left hand and foot are guaranteed not to get sore quickly.
The key technology presented is the Honda E-Clutch. This system allows the driver to accelerate and shift gears without needing to pull the clutch lever. That way, fatigue in the left hand and leg can be reduced significantly, especially when facing heavy traffic or taking long touring trips.
The driving character becomes smoother and more natural, while increasing the confidence of riders of all levels of experience. The presence of this technology makes the rear brake pedal and transmission lever disappear. In addition, the lever on the left handlebar changes its function from clutch to rear brake.
