North America to Significantly Contribute to the Growth of the Global Market for Two Wheeler Slipper Clutch
North America is one of the leading regions in the global market for two wheeler slipper clutch and is expected to maintain its dominance in the forecast period as well. The growth can be attributed to factors like the increasing consumer shift towards high-performance motorcycles and racing bikes, coupled with the high consumer disposable incomes in the region.
This is further supported by the presence of advanced technology in the region. Europe is the other significant market for two wheeler slipper clutch owing to the increasing production of racing prototype bikes. The slipper clutch technology is new for racing bikes in developing countries, and it is expected that the emerging regions like the Asia-Pacific will significantly contribute to the industry growth in the coming years.
Two Wheeler Slipper Clutch: Market Segmentation
Two wheeler slipper clutch, also known as slider clutch or back torque limiting clutch, is particularly designed for performance-oriented motorcycles to reduce the effects of engine braking at the time of deceleration. It plays a significant role in minimising the back-torque at the time of deceleration or sudden downshifting of gears. Owing to this quality, it is also referred to as an antilock braking system for the drivetrain. It consists of two bases, ramps with ball bearing, dog clutches, spline hub, and clutch plates, among others.By type, the market is divided into:
- Below 400cc
- 400cc to 699cc
- 700cc - 1000cc
- Above 1000cc
Based on distribution channel, the industry can be bifurcated into:
- OEM
- Aftermarket
The regional markets for the product include:
- North America
- Europe
- Asia-Pacific
- Latin America
- Middle East and Africa
Growing Demand for High Performance Bikes to Boost the Demand for Two Wheeler Slipper Clutch
The two wheeler slipper clutch enhances the overall riding performance of the bike and also reduces the risk of wear and tear of different parts in the drivetrain or gearbox. It protects the engine components, and, thus, it is anticipated to play a crucial role for two wheeler drivetrains. Further, it also absorbs the engine braking force during bumpy rides and reduces the work of the suspension, thereby improving the biking experience. Therefore, two wheeler slipper clutch plays a significant role in reducing the driver’s effort for braking and improves the overall experience for bike riders. These factors are driving the demand for two wheeler slipper clutch in the automotive industry, particularly to develop performance-oriented bikes. Meanwhile, industry leaders are focusing on the innovation in material for two wheeler slipper clutch as well as in components like dog clutch and ramp. Over the forecast period, the rapid technological advancements and the growing investments by the manufacturers to enhance the performance of two wheeler slipper clutch are expected to boost the industry growth. However, the high installation cost associated with the product and the rising trend of dual clutch in automotive vehicles may hamper the industry growth in the coming years.Key Industry Players in the Global Two Wheeler Slipper Clutch Market
