Do You Need to Pull the Clutch When Shifting Gears with a Motorcycle Slipper Clutch? Preparing to Start the Motorcycle: Before starting, ensure the motorcycle is in neutral. To begin, firmly pull the clutch lever with your left hand to disengage the clutch. Press the gear shift lever down one position with your foot (each gear change requires pulling the clutch lever simultaneously), shifting into first gear. Completing the Start: Gradually release the clutch lever. When it reaches the 3/4 position, simultaneously ease the clutch lever while twisting the throttle to increase engine speed, transferring power to the rear wheel. Once the rear wheel begins to rotate, fully release the clutch lever to engage the clutch, completing the starting procedure.
