Abstract:
A centrifugal clutch of a motorcycle has clutch housing which includes a friction plate, a clutch boss including a clutch plate, a pressure plate that pressure-contacts the friction plate with the clutch plate, a roller weight that receives a centrifugal force and presses the pressure plate toward a plate group side. The centrifugal clutch also includes an elastic body that constantly biases the pressure plate toward the plate group side to transmit a portion of a driving force from the clutch housing to the clutch boss even when the motorcycle engine is in an idling state. The elastic body may comprise a disc spring that biases the pressure plate toward the plate group and a coil spring that biases the pressure plate away from the plate group.
