Revloc Dyna Ring coming to Motosportz

yes, they make a brake resi cap with a knob for adjusting it.

So I have about 90 miles on it on my 125. Install was SUPER EZ. Nothing to it. Basically the idea is the cable holds the clutch partially open and the Dyna Ring (DR from now on) expands to take up the gap. Like i said install was as simple as swapping out plates and takes 15 minutes. adjuster at the bars controls it from lots of slip to little slip to no slip where you can bump start it. Initial setup and ride was weird as a autoclutch on a 125 with is interesting to begin with. Seemed like it slipped to much. It did work well and was amazing at crawling up technical hills like all autoclutches are. I hammered it hard and pointed it at the nastiest hills i could literally trying to kill it. Did this for about 30 miles at a place near my house. Took it home and tore it apart expecting blued drive plates. Looked brand new in side. I think I miss took clutch slippage as motor lugging. Never did it actually slip like when a clutch is going away and will rev under load.

I spoke with Alan at Revloc about preconceived slipping and asked some questions. Through this I decided i wanted harder hook up. So I went from 4 DR springs to 3. This should make it hit sooner and harder. The I did a real ride with friends and a good 55 plus miles. The more i rode it the more I liked it and got used to the unusual lugging slipping sounds and just rode. I have to say I believe i am a bit faster with it. For one thing it operates the clutch smoother than you ever could in perfect conditions with you concentrating 100% on the clutch trying to be smooth. This means coming out of corners is super smooth. No lurching, no spinning, no drama just fluid forward motion. I love brake sliding into corners while shifting down 2 and hammering it coming out. Very flowing and smooth. After about 3500 (guess) it seems to have full hook up and accelerates hard just like stock, no issues, seems fine at speed.

Starting out in first is sounds like a CV transmission and has a moan and smoothly moves forward. It's an odd feeling as it does it SOOOO smooth. climbing real technical hills at walking speed in first takes more throttle than before to get it spooled up some but rewards in that it will freaking climb up anything and do it will no drama, no wild clutch fanning, no lurching around while trying to operate the clutch. On the 125 you sometimes need to introduce just a little slipping, not full disengagement and this clutch does that perfectly. One test hill I climbed twice for fun and this was the type of hill you do not want to do the first time. No real hard but super slow / technical and usually a fight. with the 125 and Revloc i could walk right up it no drama or wheel spin every time. Amazing. So basically if you get over the unusual sound of a 125 lugging and slipping right off idle and just ride the sucker it amazes. My first impressions were not that great and i thinking the clutch was slipping to much and took to much hit off the bottom. After going to three springs and understanding the weird sounds and way this bike works now if you just ride it and don;t think about it the autoclutch definitely has advantages. I got crossed up on some loose nasty hills and just kept the hammer down in first and it motored right up. Took lines that would have been really a huge workout with the manual clutch and made them drama free. This Revloc (as other autoclutches will do as well) made the challenging hills EZ where they were the part of riding a 125 that was not as fun. The hill climbing ability, while already high went up a few notches and made it way EZer to do.

My buddy Adam with a 07 WR250 with a rekluse rode it and LOVED it. had no transitional issues like I did and did not think it slipped much. In his words "I always liked your 125 but this autoclutch fixes the thing i did not like about it, clutching and hills. Makes it so smooth and flowing" he loved it.

BTW i rode pretty much all day without using the clutch once.

So the good...

- Makes hills amazingly EZ
- Feel faster because the bike is so smooth / flow
- No clutching
- impossible to stall, seriously
- super EZ install

the bad...

- zaps a little of the bottom end power as it slips (as it should)
- clutch manual operation does not work like stock as advertised which is disappointing. Will be working with Alan regarding this.

Overall I would say it is a big advantage especially on hill climbs where you need to tend the clutch which on a 125 can be quite a bit. I also think it makes hauling the mail through the real tight stuff much EZer and smooth making the great handling 125 feel like it handles even better. I went from not sure about it, to leaning towards liking it to this is staying installed, I really like it. I think I was surprised I was not wild over it from the get go having autoclutches in the past. More than the autoclutch I think it is the 125 and autoclutch that threw me for a bit. It's an odd combo that works well once you get over the initial oddness of it.

More to come.

this one has me lugging it some...

Batteries ran out before the big hills.

I am hammering it in an effort to find that out as well. Right now seems fine. I agree, buy the end of the second day on it I might as well have removed the lever all together, not needed anymore.

it does sound weird. moaning around everywhere. But it sure works well. I'm having trouble imagining a nasty hill i can't get up.

retail is $379. Have them for the wr125 and wr 250/300 now. Email me if you want one and a better price

I am working with him on this. Would like to cover everything eventually.

We are working with revloc on the entire line. Should be soon.

Will know more about the new models soon. Price is the same $379
