Don’t worry I’ve done it a couple of times this week already! I even did it about five times at one light all because I my mind just stopped working when it stalled out haha
I did my training yesterday. I had difficulty with the clutch. My instructor said i was unique in how bad i was. I think he was just making fun of me. Once he left me alone I started and stopped about 300 times to get the hang of it. Had 4 hours of practicing it as well as counter steering and cornering and had no problems.
This is the hardest part of learning to ride a bike. The clutch. It's different for almost every bike. So you gotta get a feel for the clutch setup of your bike. It's even harder on a hill.
@@jessica5378 I remember waking up at 5 and going to a remote location to practice. I would intentionally go to an incline and start from the bottom go 3 meters, stop and try to get the clutch bite again and again till I reach the top. Just focus on getting the muscle memory down on were the clutch bite point is. if it's a hill just give a bit more gas that's all to it. After two weeks you'll start doing it naturally without even thinking about it. Good luck
thanks man! I'm almost 15 and thinking about buying a motorcycle because I love riding and it's different. I'm always stalling so I'll try this thank you!
1:10 happens to the best of us! I’ve been riding for longer than I care to mention and even today happened to me at the light when I thought it was in neutral and I wanted to give my clutch hand a rest. Don’t let stalling discourage you! Happens to everybody even if they won’t admit it outright!
Great video your a good instructor. I stalled out in class like 3 times until I figured it out. I am still amp to learn how to ride, I have to teach myself and take the msc again. Thanks for videos like this - yours is very helpful.
I remember during the test, I reved up the engine to 1/3 throttle on every start in an effort not to stall. I even pulled a wheelie while I accelerated on the braking part of the test. My coaches told me I needed more clutch control. I still passed!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This is absolutely one of the best videos I have ever seen on Clutch and Throttle control. I kept stalling and I couldn't figure out why. I did not understand that I needed to apply the throttle closer to the END of the friction zone and that I had to release my clutch much slower than I was doing. I realized it when you said, "While it's still letting go slowly. While I am letting go, and I let go." I would have let go at "while it's still letting go slowly," and it would stall, since I applied throttle at the beginning of the friction zone. I noticed you don't have many motorcycle instructional videos. Your voice is great and your instructions are very detailed. You should consider doing more beginner motorcycle videos. Thank you again.
Hey thank you! I got my motorcycle stolen a few months after this :( But I am getting another one soon and I should be able to start the channel back up! Thanks for checking the video out!!
I bought today my first manual bike and it was a real adventure :). I only ride automatic Scooters before but now i have to shift gears and use the clutch. I need a lot of practice before i drive on a normal street thats for sure
Man thank you for this clean explanation you just gave me because I'm a new rider and I've been struggling a little bit with clutch control from taking off
My issue as a new rider is trying to do this at a stop sign quickly. I rarely ever stall because I go so slow with getting into the friction zone and barely using gas but cars are so impatient they hate me lol. I just want to learn to be faster with it I guess.
Great video man. Thanks. I’m learning the friction zone of my bike. I can get the friction zone no problem just the throttle part still trying to get use to. When I’m in intersection, especially when I’m the first position I always get nervous and mess up the combination. So I either stall or pull the throttle too much that it jump out. Good thing I don’t go fast so haven’t fallen yet. LoL. I always feel pressured when there are cars behind me cause I feel I start to move too slow.
Yeah the most nerve racking times cohe me were when cars were behind me. You can try a small street where there won't be too many cars. And just think about how in 2 or 3 weeks you'll probably have it down by then if you keep practicing. That confidence used to relax me a little bit
The goal is to not fear pulling the throttle, once you get used to the friction zone it's the throttle cutting off gas that makes the bike stall. Been there many times.
Thanks for the video I decided to buy a honda stateline vt1300 as my first bike. Struggling with take offs still from time to time but if I'm rolling in good no issues. I'll get there
I'm tanking my license in Europe and I've just had my worst lessons, stalled going up a cliff with a bus and 3 cars behind me, the motorcycle i was using is very old and the gearbox got stuck between first and neutral, couldn't go anywhere until i put it in second and first again. After that, i was seriously nervous as it's been like 2 minutes of me trying to start the bike. So I stalled again, almost dropping it in the process. This video helped me knowing I'm not the only one, and for anyone reading this, try to beat my fuck up xD
Damm bro just yesterday I was driving it. I was doing perfectly fine till I got to a stop sign, kept stalling out lmao. Took me like 6 tries just to not stall and when I start going a little I tried to take a right turn and I turned too wide that I got too close to the edge and went into the grass and stalled my bike again, dropped it, messed up my right mirror and then struggled picking it up because it's heavy ashit (cruiser bike). Then I was doing fine again becuase I didn't have to stop anywhere so about a good 5 minutes I stopped again because I needed to tighten my mirror back but wouldn't tightn so when I try to go again I stalled about 3 times. Then maybe 20 minutes later after I got my inspection on my bike I was driving it back to my brother's house and I was doing good. First stopped sign I didn't stall but the second stop sign I stalled 3 times while there was a truck behind my mom's car waiting (my mom was following me). Then when I finally went there was another stop sign and that was the worst one. Cars kept coming becuase it was a bit of a busy street I was getting on to turn on my street. When I try to go I kept stalling out everytime I tried to go. Then more Cars were coming behind me and they had to go around. Cars kept driving down the street that I would have to wait for an opportunity to go but each time I had it I stall out. Then a funeral started coming down the street and whole bunch of cars are just lined up behind eachother. My ignition started going really high everytime I go into first gear to drive and I was getting really frustrated. I was in that same spot for a little over 10 minutes till I was finally able to take off so I decided f it I'm driving to my house since it's down the street instead of my brother's.
Fantastic video. Very well explained. I have had a hard time finding a good video explaining this very concept. Just purchased an Iron 883 and was having these problems. Kept stalling at first. I love the quote "the clutch is everything" I already feel so much more confident and I havn't even hoped on the bike yet. Thank you! It is interesting how bikes are different. I practiced on a Harley street 500 and I was able to let the clutch out faster and the bike would go but it would be jerky. I could not do that with the 883. I thought that once you got into the friction zone and applied gas, you were good to go. I believe I have been letting the clutch out immediately after finding the friction zone. Its nice to see I am not the only one who experienced difficulty in this department. Thanks again for posting this video. This information will save lives!
I learned very quickly that, you can move the bike and roll down the street and even u-turns, simply by engaging that friction zone, and letting the bike coast. I learned that FIRST.. Then, I learned to let that happen first, before I would even twist the throttle. In my opinion, one of the easiest ways to learn how to ride a motorcycle.
You need to check you bike and adjust the clutch lever to a point that is ok to suit you. Once you do you can pull away in 1st / 2nd and 3rd. This is easy if have rev counter as you can see the revs that set up to pull off( about 3 rpm and over) this is called the biting point.
This is the most helpful video that I can find just next time include that on some dirt bikes N is the very bottom gear and each gear goes up after that
Today I decided to practice some street riding and there was a lot of traffic too. I stalled like 3 or 4 times…. Needless to say I gotta practice with my friction zone a lot more it’s so embarassinggggg 😭😂
In the UK, most people still drive manual (stick shift) cars so I think all this is second nature because you're doing exactly the same thing but with your feet on the pedals. I guess in the US you need a video on it.
supa dupa Add throttle even before hitting the fiction zone..and when in the fiction zone add more and smoothly release the clutch..in this way you won't stall at all and take off a hell lot quicker
So, whenever the bike is turned ON (after it was OFF), the bike automatically wakes up in neutral? Unlike a car, which wakes in gear or neutral, depending on where the gear shifter is engaged at the moment when the car is started? After that, it's just like driving an manual 6 speed car. 1st all the way down, N half up, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 full up and the same gear pattern, in reverse, back down? The gas, break and clutch work just they do in a stick shift? The gas and clutch must be worked in unison to keep the bike from stalling and/or jerking forward and stopping?
The Neutral position is NOT automatic on any motorcycle. When the Engine is off from stalling or switching it off, he half presses the gear lever up from 1st to put bike in neutral, before he presses the ignition. This is a good habbit to have as puts less strain on engine (apparently) but you can start the bike up while in 1st gear as long as the clutch is disengaged (held in) just like a manual car.
British kids also have terrible dental hygiene and eat rank food and beer and celebrate it like it's good, so there's that. It's not "hard", just a matter of knowledge.

Nothing like stalling when your the first one at a red light with traffic behind you. Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!
Don’t worry I’ve done it a couple of times this week already! I even did it about five times at one light all because I my mind just stopped working when it stalled out haha
Yeahhhhh
Did that myself in my first ride. I'm getting better.
Thank God I'm not the only one who stalls....great video
I stalled 8 times in a row….
@@childsacrifice5737 I stalled in the middle of busy intersection. Probably ruined the day for many.
@@childsacrifice5737just stalled myself in the middle off the road couldn’t get it back in neutral start the engine so had wheel it on to the kerb 😭😂

You aren’t lying. I stalled many times and it was very frustrating.
I first tried up an incline just in the driveway and stalled it 5 times 😂the jump scared tf out of me

Did you get one??

Oldie but goodie 👌🏾💪🏾just got a bike and needed this 💯
Man I am at that stage where it stalls when I start. Shifting while it's moving isn't an issue. Thanks so much for the tips
It's a bitch when you in the middle of traffic and that shit happens fml! But then again, i'm not the only one lol.

these videos help a lot, saving needless accidents, thank you much bro
Bike at my MSF was tough(no excuses)but if an open clutch is 100 and a pulled in to bar is 0,bike didn’t grab/move until about 85 out. Passed anyway

Cheers man Im almost 16 and been practicing for cbt this helped alot
Just release easy everytime and open the throttle just as smooth and you wont stall. Might not beat em off the light but you will be moving.
Brilliant! Thanks
Makes sense now, thanks bro
cool tips dude thanks
Thank You.
what gloves are these? super nice lol
He just made seem Hella difficult
The friction zone is not that entire range. It is a very small range and varies on every bike.
Today I decided to practice some street riding and there was a lot of traffic too. I stalled like 3 or 4 times…. Needless to say I gotta practice with my friction zone a lot more it’s so embarassinggggg 😭😂
Keep practicing you will figure it out 💪🏻
Same, I was like I might as well walk this shit home but it was so heavy😅.
The worst part is when people keep honking at you when you stall 😂
@@Ramalama09that was me today lol
haha, I just walk until I go like 2mph and then i start riding with ease xD
Works 60% of the time, everytime!
Lol try that on a 125
It'll need gas, otherwise it'll stall, on the +side bike clutches are a lot more robust than you'd think.
I hope this is waaayyy before you get your driving License!!
Thanks for the video bro! I’m a new rider love it! What’s your bike?
It's a 2016 yamaha Fz 07!

Hey i never rode a bike before in my life but i drive a stick car .. would i be able to roll the bike from first or second time easley ?!

Yeah but your food and dental hygiene still suck.
What if it stalls b4 you can feel it move
How to take off quick?? When waiting for traffic light
👍👍👍👍👍👍 🆒 Nice 'n' Easy to understand. 🙏
That was good.
I've never seen a motocross move this slow at a red light
Boom. Gj Man
+Frag Dad thanks man, appreciate it!
when you put it in first gear from nutreal does your FZ/MT jerk?
What about if you wanna race, you cant do that soo slow. Any tips for when you wanna take off fast?
supa dupa
Add throttle even before hitting the fiction zone..and when in the fiction zone add more and smoothly release the clutch..in this way you won't stall at all and take off a hell lot quicker
Add throttle. Then to change gear faster. Rev match then use clutchless shifting
so do you have to come out of the friction zone everytime you're at a red light? or is this just when you first start moving the bike?
how /where is it indicated.. which speed/neutral gear you're at.. ^^ i enjoyed myself; not a driver
Thanks paps
What Camera? also thanks

Biritish kids are riding bikes before they start secondary school. You really find clutch control hard?
