How to Ride a Dirt Bike with a Clutch: A beginner's guide 

Thank you for an easy to understand video. From a beginner's perspective, it was just what I needed. I felt like I was with a friend who was taking time to explain things to me so I would have the best experience.

It's been too long since I've gone dirt biking, great video for someone getting back into biking thanks!

Looks like your next video will be "how to replace a broken shift shaft".

Thanks dude. U really took your time explaining the gears and how-to. Going get a KTM

Let’s go of clutch, and almost flys off: that’s a good start

Hey there. Thank you so much for the info. Best video out there not to mention camera quality. Youve cover lots of small but important info. Ill get my dirt bike now because of you. Thanks.

Great intro video for me, and the articles on your website are also VERY helpful! Thanks!!

Hey man! I really like your videos. I never have a clutch bike before and thinking of getting one and you video really help. Thank you so much brother!

Hey Jim, Im Kenny from Zambia, Great Video, I'm starting to ride for the first time this weekend and after watching your video I feel like I'm ready. Keep up the great work. Thanks

Why am I watching this 😂 I already know how to use ma clutch

Thank you! Now it makes more sense! My friend yelling at me this and that 😂😂 just need something simple and easy! 👊🏼

Also you dont need the clutch shifting in general but its tough on the gears if you dont and you let go of the throttle when you are shifting

Thanks man, you really explained the clutch wel! That 1/3 power thing helped a lot to understand the level of power you need. No one rly explains that well.

So well explained, thank you! Going for the first time tomorrow with the neighbour!

1:06 watching he stomp on the shifter is so painful

Thanks your video was better than most I seen your a good teacher 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Amazing video!! Thank you so much for your help!

dude ur the only video that explains it clearly

The most helpful advise!

Bro! GREAT video! Getting my first dirtbike for my birthday it’s been my childhood dream!

You know exactly how to explain it well better than experts, and for a fact people still don’t listen when they ride a bike

Thanks man your video is Very understanding unlike others Thanks

Getting dirt bike soon video helped a lot 👍🏽

Thanks so so much you helped me a lot

Hi just wanna thanks this guy for this Guideline it help me on clearly thanks again bro ☘️💯

Best clutch tutorial on RU-vid

Rode one for the first time today! It was a little frustrating!! Been doing downhill mtb and xc for long time!!

great content this was a very informative video!

Great video, keep it up man.

Thanks for this detailed video. I'm a beginner and didn't know about using my knees to push the bike left to right, seems much safer to get around a 'sudden rock' on the path. I just don't know how to use the back brake while standing on pegs...seems impossible. I suppose I could shift down without the clutch to slow down and not lose control going downhill on a riverbed.

Best video ever thanks !

Brilliant explanation Thx!!!

nice vid! i ride a little different but I tried this way and is works well too! with the braking tho using the front brake works better, if ur going fast using the back brake will lock up your back tire and you will just skid, use the front going downhill too. also I usually ride (mostly) the whole time standing

Thank you I appreciate your explanation.

Thanks you’ve helped me out

Thank you for this helpful video congrats you just won a subscriber I took a look at your chanel and I saw that you aren't posted for 5 years so you probably are not going to read this comment but I hope you do... Please make more videos like this you are going to make it I believe in you!

Thanks this was very helpful

I think nobody even boys 15+ doesn't need to know how to start a bike, this is very funny 🤣

That is so useful thanks

Nice 👍 very well explained

Sweet vid man!!

Thank you this is really helped

thanks man learnt a lot

Thanks bro u explain so good👍😎

Been riding for 11 years yet I still watch this? My logics*

If you are going into a tricky area stand on the pegs put your head over the handlebars then x scoot your butt back it will give you more control going through a ditch with mud in it or going over logs do the same but pull the clutch in keep on the throttle an when you hit it let go of the clutch fast and give it more gas to wheelie right over the log.

Fuch - you never, never, NEVER stomp on a gear lever. Move the bike slightly (and therefor the gear box) and push on the lever. There are splines, cam plates, cam pins, selector forks and all sorts of things that can be bent, broken and stuffed with between your clod hoppers and the gears.

bro helped me so much thanks

This video help me a lot

amazing vid

Beat video of explaining

I’ve rode quads since I was 10, and now I think I should make the switch to dirt bikes

Great vid 10/10

Thanks so much for this video people on youtube don't show us as you did

That answer all of my question

I have a Kawasaki Klx 110 and today I got a Kawasaki kx100 so this is helpful

Thank you sir

I’m brand new to 2 stokes. When shifting outside of launch do I always need to use the clutch when shifting up/down

nice dude!

Bro you explained me everything

I'm new to this biking situation, and I think you don't stomp too hard on a shifter and don't do it too much, it will break the shifter.

If you were to buy a dirt bike from a pawn shop would it be a ok buy as in legal. Iv heard stolen stuff gets sold their but does the same apply to dirt bikes.

TTR230, do you ever feel underpowered considering the weight of the bike?

The best ever

GOOD ONE

I’m trying bro I start the bike (kick start)while it’s in 1st gear dive and when I start to move my bike turns offs my

Make more videos they are good!

is the gas supposed to be on?and choke turned off once its on n warm?

I’m two years later cause I’m just getting a DirtBike but when you ride do you use the clutch to speed up or just move the throttle to speed up? Because I’ve seen people who ride pull the throttle down and make that “Vrmvrmvrmvrm” sound and not speed up?

whats that light blinking near carburettor

I subed

My first dirt bike is a 250

7:47😂😂😂😂You're funny bro

I race downhill mountain bikes. Will I be able to pick it up quick/help?

Are all bike the same were u start with. 1 gear

good vid but why are you kicking the shift lever like that it doesn't need anywhere near that amount of force

"Just stomp a whole bunch of times on the shifter". Its ok, not like youll fuck up up shift drum at all.

Tommy Mack: Who need a clutch just use the throttle 😂

So when ur in first gear u can’t let go of the clutch unless ur going full throttle?

whats the name of this dirtbike

what if you don't pull in the clutch at all you just start the enging?

I dont know why I am watching this been riding for over 6 years at this point

I'm 35 and planning to learn and buy one

Attention beginners: please don't stomp on the gear lever as seen in this video. A simple click will suffice and your machine will thank you for it.

So do you start the bike in neutral or 1st with the clutch

is this the backfire guy

Hello I'm Jim from income school.

Isn’t this the guy from backfire

just stomp on your shifter till you know!!!!!

Is the 1 N 2 3 4ect Shifting Same on all dirt bikes?

Damn that shifting 😂 what the hell was that?

230 dirt bike??

you don't need the clutch to shift at all
