I want to ride my bi-cy-cle, I want to ride my bike. I want to ride my bi-cy-cle, I want to ride it where I like.

Clutch (クラッチ Kuratchi) is a small, scooter-like robot carried in the trunk section of Cybertron ambassador Crosscut. Its main function is to store all of Crosscut's memories and datatrax, so in the event that Crosscut is captured or killed, Clutch can return to the Autobots with all of Crosscut's information.

It is not to be confused with the Autoscout.

Also he is small.

Collector's Edition

[edit]
Clutch is a tiny, non-transforming Honda [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Motocompo|{{#if:||Motocompo}}]] scooter that fits in the trunk section of the Crosscut toy. This is a restored accessory from the pre-Transformers Diaclone version of the "Honda City" type toy that was dropped from Skids. Clutch can seat a Diaclone pilot figure on its back. Naturally, it was only available with the e-HOBBY exclusive Crosscut.
Clutch was redecoed into the unnamed scooter accessories for the Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 3 exclusives Skids and Screech.

Masterpiece

[edit]
I've got a bike, you can ride it if you like / It's got a basket, a bell that rings / And things to make it look good
A retool of the Component X that came with MP-54 Reboost (itself a retool of MP-53 Skids sans the little motorbike), Masterpiece Clutch is a pack-in accessory for MP-53+ Senator Crosscut featuring a much more accurate rendition of the Motocompo. Like the original, it can be stored on the trunk of Senator Crosscut's vehicle mode.
This mold was also used to make the Motocompo accessory for MP-53+B Dia Burnout.
