What's a Wet Clutch?

and also on Yamaha FJ1200 sport/touring bikes, among others.. And yeah, Continuous Variable Transmission systems (CVT) are really different from either wet or dry clutch. They use a centrifugal clutch. The increase of shaft speed causes the clutch to engage. A much simpler technology, though not readily adaptable to high torque applications.
