Clutch & Clutch BasketClutch & Clutch Basket• Clutch provides a means of connecting the engine to the transmission

• A clutch is, essentially, a subcomponent designed to allow engagement or disengagement of the engine to the gearbox.

• Connection provided by clutch works on the principle of friction.

The Shift Forks move The Shift Forks move the slider-the slider-connected gears connected gears from gear to gear.from gear to gear.

The set of gear selector forks move to engage gears. Their significance lies mostly in their connection with the shifting drum.

Shift DrumShift Drum

Grooves

a.k.a. Ratcheting Drum

When shifting gears, you are essentially rotating a ratcheting drum. It is because of the drum that you shift in sequence. It achieves this by directly moving the gear selector forks via grooves cut into the drum, which in turn engage the gears.
