This equates to power being transferred/spread across many teeth on 3-4 gears at once and gearchanges are performed hydraulically by "clutches/bands" Which contain a sun gear, planet carrier(holding the planetaty gears) and a ring gear, which are all helical cut gears too.


I've always wondered about the suitability of using ATF fluid in motorcycle transmissions.Īutomatic transmissons have a torque convertor to smooth the power delivery to the transmisson, which by its nature contains planetary gearsets,
