  • holding the bike on the biting point/ friction zone regularly is GOING to wear out your clutch, fast

  • @dasmonkeyman, on a dry clutch it's probably not the best plan. With a wet clutch (most bikes) it's not that big an issue. However, using the rear brake is IMO the best option. If you're in a bind and need that right foot down? Holding on the clutch won't kill it.

  • @delkial Why not?

  • nice drz

  • OMG! thanks captcrash!

  • haha it is not that easy...!!!

  • cool 60 second lesson. That's exactly what I do on a hill. On a car you can even use the handbrake if your a pansy lol.

    P.S. -> I wouldn't use the clutches friction zone to keep you stationary on a hill for an extended period of time. You are obviously killing your clutch by doing that. That's why the guy uses the rear brake.

    Rear brake is always safer to stop @ low speeds with. GL & Ride safe. Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  • Darn thing is bulletproof! Plus if you pipe, jet and cut the airbox--no worries! I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a reliable, easy to use, easy to upgrade.
