I just got my bike a couple of days ago..
I love it, but still its my first bike.. first time on a clutch (other than the MSF classes)
but yah, I was a complete clutch virgin.
so here is my problem: I work until 9-11pm almost every night.. it gets very cold at night here. and after work,
I start up my bike with the "choke" enriched, and let it warm up while I get my gear on.
And let it warm up long enough, and have it idle at around 1250 (the # in the manual) for around 5 mintues or so.
but when I shift down to first, and try to manuver the clutch and throttle, I always stall.
I know when I find that sweet spot on the clutch, because its so smooth.. and I will keep practicing and try to
learn more about my bike with the friction zone and all, but I still feel so stupid for stalling my bike on numerous occasions.
Can anybody please help me?
Thanks.
