WET CLUTCH

Wet Clutches

Motor Bikes with a combined Engine / Gearbox combination may have a wet clutch arrangement where the engine oil is also the gearbox lubricant and where the bike's clutch is immersed in the oil. This is known as a wet clutch arrangement. Lubricants with friction modifiers in them, are not suitable for these types of arrangements as they can induce clutch slip.

Engine oils that are  NON FRICTION MODIFIED are generally used for these types of applications.
