New to auto-clutch questions

All this Dyna talk has me interested but I have some general questions.

1. Are you still clutching when shifting? If not, is it harder on the transmission? harder hit shifting up?

2. If you need to raise the front wheel quickly is it the same with auto-clutch or is it softer or delayed in coming up?

3. Is it basically just slipping or free spining under 800 rpm for instance?

Any more insight appreciated.

Don't have one but this is how I understand it:
1: no, no and don't think so
2: dunno, should be softer
3: slipping is my guess.

I have the Dyna. To answer your questions...

1. No but I didn't use it to shift before but you can if you like, I believe it is easier on the trans, I didn't notice any difference.

2. It is actually easier to raise the front end IMO when at low speeds where you can feel the Dyna working. My edjumacated guess is that it lets the engine flash up to a higher speed before engaging the clutch and then it just snaps up. Maybe just a hint of lag compared to standard but not enough that it affected when I start to lift it. (BTW, remember that I have mine set with two springs instead of the Revloc recommended three which makes it engage quicker) When you are above the Dyna's range of slipping then raising the front is the same as with the standard clutch.

3. Slipping just like a normal clutch with the lever pulled in does.
