It is unclear to me how an auto-clutch can be set up to work in all conditions. Depending on how much power I need (or can put down to the ground), I may have a wide range of RPM's dialed up as I slip the clutch up the side of a tough hill.

Do the auto clutches have some way of sensing torque or whatever that they allow higher engine speed in situations that demand it? My bike does not make enough low end torque to get up some hills if the clutch engaged at just above idle.

Have never ridden with one of these, but approaching 50 I can in some cases begin to see the benefit of having one. Getting too old to get restarted on the side of a hill when I screw up my line choice.
