  • Here's a bunch of clutch control drills that will help your clutch and throttle control on your bike.
    These can be done in your driveway and with a small hill. These are a great way to improve control for your wheelies are well.
    Also check out warm up drills for turning here:

    Some of these are taken from Rich Larson - IRC Tire USA Moto channel so be sure to check out his channel as he is an excellent and articulate hard Enduro teacher: • THREE Clutch Control D...

      He's got to be the most articulate guy on TH-cam for moto and I really appreciate his style. He's also done a lot of trials stuff and transfered it to big bikes which I'd want to emulate.

    If you don’t have a video yet on hills and even short ups, I have found that many new riders struggle with this concept. Get the momentum prior to the obstacle. Don’t be afraid to use the motor. More early, then roll off as you get closer to clearing the obstacle.
    Didn’t look through all your videos, but thought many of your followers could use some help in this area. Probably one of the concepts I teach the most.

    • @TrialsProgression

      @@TrialsProgression yup, that’s the one!
      Another (more advanced) tip to getting traction in slippery conditions is to rev it a bit more than you need, but then roll off the throttle a bit as you are letting the clutch out. Really helps to reduce spin, but hard to learn.

      @@TrialsProgression Currently we're sharing a Beta 200 Evo. He just turned 13 so that's about his limit on what he can kick over. We have a blast around our house on it though and it doesn't bother anyone or destroy grass. I can't imagine learning the trials/enduro muscle memory on my 300XCW, so much easier on a 155lb trials bike. Anyway thanks again for making these, makes my job easier since I'm a student WITH him. Most of the times he learns it first then explains to me what I'm doing wrong, a little role reversal.

      After riding road and enduro bikes I just thought the clutch was for changing gears. Trials requires so much more from it as I'm finding out. Progressive drills speeds up that learning curve.

      @TrialsProgression  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I knew I forgot to mention something. Yes I move my clutch lever in considerably and I have more leverage pulling on the end of it. Also when I crash the levers don't get moved because the end of the bar takes the brunt of the Fall.

      I would get a nice used one. As a beginner, you will drop it and scratch it and such. Having used I think will allow you the freedom to make mistakes and the budget to get parts/gear as needed.

    I am trying to work on a slow wheeli on a full size enduro bike, ktm 250 4t, I am able to lift up the front of the bike and stand behind it, when trying to walk with bike, everything I give troutle the bike comes up and kind of turning of the gas I supply, do you have a tips on how to move the bike forwards? I am to trying to implement rich Larssons guid, what struggling a lot on moving the bike forward when stand behind it, I have also tried setting on it, but the motor turns off straight a way, any tips for me? It is very versatile frustrating

    • @TrialsProgression
      @TrialsProgression  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If the engine is choking out, then a touch more RPM and slip the clutch. You can practice this NOT in a wheelie stand just to get better at it, then add the wheelie back in.

  • @casperme6552
    @casperme6552 ปีที่แล้ว

    This might sound really stupid, but do you have to worry about burning your clutch out, as you would in a car if you were slipping it this much?

    • @TrialsProgression
      @TrialsProgression  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not a stupid question. These bikes are designed for this type of stuff so it's all good. Transmission clutch oil replaced more often. Usually around 10 engine hours.
