For the 2007 model year the TRX420 was only available in four configurations being either 2WD or 4WD and shifting with a manual foot shift or using Honda's Electronic Shift Program (ESP). However, in 2008 Honda introduced the TRX420FA (4WD Automatic) also known as the Rancher AT, as well as electronic power steering. Although the previous ...
An AMT functions in the same way as older semi-automatic and clutchless manual transmissions, but with two exceptions; it is able to both operate the clutch and shift automatically, and does not use a torque converter. Shifting is done either automatically from a transmission control unit (TCU), or manually from either the shift knob or shift ...
Powershifting, also known as full-throttle shifting or flat-shifting, is a method of gear shifting used with manual transmissions to reduce the time where the driving wheels are not powered. Unlike during a normal gear change, in a powershift the driver does not let off the accelerator.
A power shuttle is an additional unit used in transmissions and is generally used in agricultural tractors.While the vehicle is moving forwards, the driver can pull a lever that makes it stop and go backwards at the same speed.
A transmission control unit (TCU), also known as a transmission control module (TCM), or a gearbox control unit (GCU), is a type of automotive ECU that is used to control electronic automatic transmissions. Similar systems are used in conjunction with various semi-automatic transmissions, purely for clutch automation and actuation.
Gear shift lever on a motorcycle (above the toe of the rider's boot) A sequential manual transmission is unsynchronized, and allows the driver to select either the next gear (e.g. shifting from first gear to second gear) or the previous gear (e.g., shifting from third gear to second gear), operated either via electronic paddle-shifters mounted behind the steering wheel or with a sequential ...
The 2009 Honda VFR1200F is the first motorcycle to use a DCT. [52] Honda has since expanded the application of the DCT to the Gold Wing model (model year 2018), the Africa Twin, the NT1100, Rebel 1100, and the NC700XD (model year 2012). In 2010, the Mitsubishi Fuso 6-speed Duonic transmission became the first DCT to be used in a truck. [53]
The clutch brake not only slows or stops the idle gear axis but can also prevent shifting into gear until the clutch pedal is released a few centimetres (or inches) off the floor. In order to shift into gear, the clutch must be halfway off the floor, otherwise, the clutch brake will prevent the transmission from being shifted into or out of gear.
