Default Re: So I wobbled out today...

i wanted to use the clutch cos i tried doing clutchless upshifting last year (when i actually knew how to control the bike lol) and it was pretty violent, i was much happier using the clutch. i basically just couldn't feed the clutch/throttle correctly to balance it, that was the problem on the u turns rather than looking where i want to go, etc - i highlighted that to myself when i stalled it a couple of times coming to a stop, cos i didn't pull the clutch in quickly enough!

i'm hoping the clutch control comes back quickly, as i mentioned tho i was prob 10x better in this respect at the end of the ride, so i feel like it is coming back!

Go play outside on the bike for half an hour, pulling away and stuff. I did this for a bit when i first rode my bike, and i quickly got used to the clutch!

well muffles ... you are very noble to admit it and recognise your shortfalls and work on them..

makes a change from most saying "I am ace me " !!!
