Here's a link to the harley autoclutch, but I couldn't find any photo's of the internals.

Basically there are two plates with tapered grooves (channels) from the center out (large groove at the center, getting smaller twards the outside). There are balls (weights) that are in the groves, when the rpm's increase the balls are pulled outward by centrifical force, this wedges the balls farther into the grooves and pushes the two plates apart, applying force to the clutch pack.

If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
