do you use to pull in the clutch lever?

Just seen a photo of me and was just wondering how many fingers other people use...

Er, 4 for the clutch, 2 for the brakes.

The 650 doesn't have a span adjustable clutch so I'm using a kit kat (4 fingers).

Four here......

........the lever is big enough and I'm not scared enough to be gripping that bad

IF I bother using the clutch then it's usually 4, but thats more often just creeping in traffic or changing down. Changing up is almost always clutchless these days.
