Top Fuel bikes, which use a centrifugal lock-up-clutch have a complicated clutch engagement system that’s motor RPM based and for safety’s sake, the motorcycles have to have the rear tire elevated off the ground during the start up procedure. This way if a clutch problem or motor RPM problem should suddenly arise, the motorcycle will not just take off on it’s own when it’s first started up.
