Abstract
An electronic control system for a clutch on a motorcycle includes a sensor configured to measure a parameter indicative of a performance or speed of the motorcycle. The sensor is configured to provide an input signal corresponding to the parameter to a computer control system, which includes a microprocessor and memory. The microprocessor and memory are configured to manipulate the input signal and the microprocessor is configured to output a control signal that controls an actuator that is configured to manipulate a position of the clutch.
