Abstracts: Most manual transmission two-wheelers use a sequential gearbox. Most modern motorcycles (except scooters) change gears (of which they increasingly have five or six) by foot lever. In conventional Gear shifting method which is used in Two wheeler (Motorcycle), cause a fatigue and reduce a driving comfort of a driver in an urban and heavy traffic area And improper shifting of gear reduces the lifetime of vehicle and maintains cost of bike is increased. In this project, a gear shifting mechanism was designed and applied on an auto clutch featured bike to make the gear transmission process faster and less destructible for the driver using Arduino base ECU. The present automatic transmission is fully mechanically controlled and it is not suitable for small displacement engines. But the gear transmission mechanism designed makes driving easier and to achieve efficient driving. This new device must be reliable, has small dimensions, economical and low maintenance cost. This project aims to improve the gear shifting process with a suitable control mechanism to implement in clutch featured bikes. According to the suggested gear shifting method, the micro-controller selects the transmission gear as per the speed of the vehicle without any human interference.
