MOPED ARMY

Just from looking at the clutch, I think because of the angle to the little chain links in the clutch that hold it together, that when you flip it the centrifugal force pulls in a slightly offset angle from the way the clutch shoes swing out so the C-force has less mechanical advantage on the shoes....engaging it at a later RPM.

I have mine all apart and could try it out but the bike is all stock right now so I think I'm just going to put it back normally
