wet clutch != hydraulic clutch
dry clutch != cable clutch

Wet/dry clutch refers to whether the clutch plates are immersed
in oil or not.

HTH

 

Very nice! I had one myself about 8 years ago.

Re: my original comments - replace "wet" with "hydraulic".

Thanks

 

OIC, you're a bit mixed up;
Dry clutch = clutch plate is dry and not immersed in oil.
Wet clutch = clutch plates are in oil.
Hydraulic clutch = dry/wet clutch operated by a hydraulic system.
Cable clutch = dry/wet clutch operated by cable.

 

Feck, you have me on that already.

 

That's what I have now.

That's what the K100 had.

Indeed.

 

No, it looks like somebody has polished it, I just went out and had a
look see.

Learn two things - the second being that you could wait and make sure
that you understand a subject before you refer to someone else's
"stupidity", notwithstanding the smiley.

 

Er, a wet clutch is one where the clutch itself runs in engine oil.
Most Jap bikes are like this. A dry clutch is one that doesn't and
sounds like a bag of nails. Most Ducatis are like this.

The method of engaging it is either hydraulic or cable and can be on
either a wet or dry clutch.

 

Hingin' off the end of Andy's DSL, I assume.

 

Absolutely. Those roads were my playground when I was a sprog of 17
with a shiny new driving licence (only sullied by two endorsements
gained by driving my first car whilst still 16) and a succession of
more powerful and modified MKI Escorts. It were grand up there then,
empty roads and plenty of bends over crests - and plunging
compressions with humpback bridges in the middle of them. Queasy ...

 

Phew, it's not just me then.

I went to the speed test on adslguide.org 'cos I thought my broadband had
got TU.

I'll let you have it when I'm finished. Promise I won't plug the tank

The doorway is even better as it's remote control as well

 

Yeah, I found some of those, but the roads were full of holes, covered
in tractor mud, and obstructed by cages.

Very much like being doon sooth really!

 

Not at all, PlusNet have some server issues at the moment. The silly
thing is I uploaded at 45k/s, and viewed the page at 8k/s.

 

No, PlusNet have some problems. It would actually be faster for me to
turn on web sharing on my Mac (Apache server is built in).
