The transmission is applied from engine/gearbox to final drivetrain only when clutch is engaged (when the pedal is not depressed down). When we depress down the pedal then actually clutch gets dis-engaged and the engine/gearbox is also dis-engaged from the final drive. Clutch is what makes the engine output to drive the final drive and it should be engaged to do so. When we dis-engage the clutch (the pedal is pushed down / the lever is pressed in bikes) the clutch gets disengaged and the drive is free from engine. I am telling this because I feel you have thought it other way around. You statement "when the clutch is engaged the RPM is normal (or high if revved)" also make me think so. Else how can you rev hard while clutch is actually engaged (pedal not depressed)? Car will move fast na? Please clarify. |
Yes I got confused there..but you got the point..thanks
