 Ok,
you just don't get. that clutch, friction zone,
and shifter stuff. You may say, what the
heck an I doing spending all my time playing
with gears and the friction zone, I just want to
learn how to ride the thing. Well, all the bikes
at all courses, everywhere are standard
transmission.But
relief may be just a motorcycle shop away. |

For most of us long time riders we don't even think
about the clutch or shifting, but we may be missing
something, and manual transmission motorcycles may go
the way of the manual transmissions in cars sooner than
you think. There may come a day, we tell
war stories about the time when a friction zone
was a thing. Honda has seen the trend and produced a
great automatic transmission motorcycle. They are not
going to let some motorcycle company like Ridley come
out of the woodwork and capture the market. Let's talk
about Ridley motorcycles.
 Ridley
Motorcycle Company is an Oklahoma, based motorcycle
manufacturer. Founded in 1995. Ridley began its first
year of full production in 1999. Ridley Motorcycle
is a producer of automatic motorcycles with a full
production line. Ridley Motorcycles are distributed
worldwide through a network of authorized dealers. The
closest dealer in the Daytona area appears to be:
Cycle World of Daytona
2900 Bellevue Avenue Daytona Beach FL 32124

DN-01
Honda says, not so fast Ridley.
What I have a choice? You can put it in "D" and
it functions like a step-less automatic. "S" is the
sport mode for more spirited riding. And "M" lets you
"shift" between five preset ratios—only there's no
clutch to worry about.
 This bike looks like a motorcycle and it gives the rider a choice of modes, from fully automatic to a shiftable
6-speed. The suggested retail price of the DN-01 is $14,599.

Silverwing
 Ok, then there's the Honda Silverwing - fuel-injected 582cc DOHC engine, a fully automatic CVT transmission, room for two,
electric start and optional ABS. It may look like a
cross between a scooter and a motorcycle, but this ain't
your daddy's motor scooter. Yes, this scooter can get
you a speeding ticket on the Interstate. Suggested
retail - $8,499.00

Yamaha T-Max 500 (automatic)
499cc liquid-cooled, 4 stroke, twin cylinder engine
The Yamaha T-Max is a sport scooter. A horizontally positioned 499cc parallel twin offers plenty of smooth power, even enough for two-up touring at highway speeds.
A double glove box in the front apron, a position-adjustable operator backrest, and a storage box under the seat
enough for a large full-face helmet.
MSRP: $7999
Here's another automatic transmission scoot that can
get you that speeding ticket on the interstate.

Yamaha FJR1300AE automatic electric shift
 1298cc, DOHC,
16-valve, liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine,
electric-shift five-speed transmission. Shifted by a
push button mechanism located on the inside of the grip.
No clutch lever. MSRP: $15699
Fully loaded sport touring bike, electric windshield,
even has heated grips. No really an automatic, but close
enough, you simply push a button to shift up or down
instead of using a shift lever. |
