ABSTRACT:
A control system and method of operating a vehicle prime mover to control a centrifugal clutch is provided. The control system includes a control unit for receiving signals (THL) corresponding to a throttle operating parameter value. The control unit is configured to map the throttle operating parameter value to a predetermined throttle operating parameter value and sets an operating mode of the prime mover based on the predetermined throttle operating parameter value. The invention provides, among other things, a smooth, controllable engagement of the centrifugal clutch.
