Rekluse Auto Clutch Need Support
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have an 05 KDX 220 r that I want to put a Rekluse EFP auto clutch on. In talking with Rekluse, the more people that ask for it, the more they will consider developing it. Price is much less than the EFM by about $300. To this regard, the more people that call and ask for it, the more likely they will make them. If you call them at 866-735-5873, they will take your name and e-mail address and wait to see how well the list grows.

Curious who you spoke with and when. Just called and the rep said there are no plans to manufacture KDX products, period.

They've been using this line for years. "If enough people call, yada yada yada". Never happened, and I never expect it to.

Yep. Rekluse likes to just drag us along. They can kiss it.Julien D wrote:They've been using this line for years. "If enough people call, yada yada yada". Never happened, and I never expect it to.

Rekluse Auto Clutch Need Support
The last time I talked with Rekluse I was told that the KDX had an odd diameter clutch which means they would need a odd number of wedges to make it work. I asked why the wedges couldn't be "centered " so to speak and he said it wasn't possible. My reply was " sounds like it's time for some new engineers " I don't think he was happy. The few calls I made before ended with either there is no demand, or it is in engineering now !!!

The fact is that not many aftermarket companys are going to spend any R&D money on a bike that is not only out of production but has been for seven years.

Revloc did. A company which was way smaller felt it was worth it so I don't know why a much larger company like Rekluse wouldn't. As we all know, KDX's pretty much live forever. It is one of the most recommended bikes for a first time full size bike to this very day. I personally just think that Rekluse has no respect for the KDX as they obviously don't know what the bike is about or the following it has.rbates9 wrote:The fact is that not many aftermarket companys are going to spend any R&D money on a bike that is not only out of production but has been for seven years.

I just got an email from Gerald Davies <sales@revloc.com.au> and he says they are now selling the Revloc Dynaring for $500 AUD delivered to the US, if anyone is interested.

Not trying to start a fight but where is Revloc now? Maybe they were just trying to keep afloat? Seems like they didn't stay around too long after they mad the dyna ring. Yes I know they still have sales in other countrys. But not here.SS109 wrote:Revloc did.

Obviously , you didn't follow the updates I posted in the stickied Revloc thread. They didn't stick around not due to bad finances (ie;going out of biz) but due to the settlement of a lawsuit against Rekluse for infringing on Revloc's patents. Rekluse basically bought them out to settle it and the owner of Revloc came out on the sweet side.rbates9 wrote:Not trying to start a fight but where is Revloc now?
