Yeah but clutchless and semi-auto...how cool would that be on a bike?


lame, most good bikes can be shifted up & down without the clutch already... can't get much faster or easier than that

Not from takeoff, though.

Fine through the gears when up and running and I'd be the first to agree that a fully auto box on a bike would be lame, but a dsg-style box would be cool.
