Default Rekluse? Is it worth it?

Hello,
You may not know me yet, I'm new. The name is Lyn, nice to meet you

So I'm a new rider, looking to do trail riding for the rest of my life. I love my bike.. a KX125 (1989)
I was thinking about getting a Rekluse automatic clutch. I can't find one for my bike (not yet anyways)
I was hoping to spark up a debate...

What do you all think about changing to an automatic? Is it worth it? And does anyone know where I coud find one for my bike?

Me personally, I think it would be good for me, as a new rider who is bound to stall a miliion more times.

whats up lyn. my opinion is to keep stalling it. gears are there to get the power ur bike has to the ground at certain times like climbing hills.I myself have owned a automatic dirt bike a husky and it's not cool going down hill and haveing no engine braking to help slow u down.so i say rev it up higher and let the clucth out a little faster.don't trip it takes practice that's the fun part.

lynn, hi, welcome
a 125 on the trails is a fun situation for a experienced rider of 2 strokes. but i guarantee you will fall alot as well as stall it out alot. especially on a 125, you need to be on the pipe to get any power out of it and you can forget about lugging it up a hill. dont forget you have a light switch power band, its eighter on or off and when its on, its on ! good luck in whatever it is you want to do but in my opinion, i would not waste my money on a automatic.
