I use a house with electricity metaphor. The power is there, the lights are on(throttle), but we adjust the lights with the dimmer switch(clutch).

I like it sir. Thank you for taking the time to watch and for sharing.

[@sgt63b]

I tell my students the same thing the clutch controls the speed, I show them how revving the engine and using the friction zone and how it controls the speed.

[@ProriderCentralTexasYouTube]

It is a good visual when you show them that demo. Thank you for watching and for sharing your comments.

Thanks buddy great tips have a great week

[@ProriderCentralTexasYouTube]

You do the same and thank you for watching.

[@machwheels8642]

Thank you for your response wow I was thinking it would be around an inch so at least your idea gives me an even better idea of how small it is thank you I appreciate it very much and can’t wait to go practice 🎉

Right on Paul...sometimes the answer is right in front of us and we dont see it.....good demo

[@ProriderCentralTexasYouTube]

So true, thank you for taking the time to watch.

I wish that you had some of the same lessons for DCT Bikes like the Honda CMX1100 Rebel that I own because I can no longer use a gear shift lever. Only using the throttle and rear brake can be a little challenging at times. 👍🏾

[@ProriderCentralTexasYouTube]

I need to see if I can find one to ride for a little so I can put out some material. The DCT does take some getting use too from what I am told. Thank you for taking the time to watch.

@@ProriderCentralTexasTH-cam I think that the Goldwing would be appropriate for your demonstration if you can get your hands on one. Thank you for responding! 👍🏾

[@machwheels8642]

Excellent info I liked the demo can you give an idea of about how much space is actually in friction zone I struggle once in it to then fully open I can find it ok but I understand there is varying degrees of that zone can you estimate about how much space we are talking about between zone and open

[@ProriderCentralTexasYouTube]

It’s hard to say but there is very little movement between the friction zone and fully engaged. If I had to guess I’d say about a millimeter or less. It is definitely a fine motor skill. So sorry I don’t have a more precise answer for you
