Motorcycle turning do not pull the clutch, pulling the clutch is usually accompanied by braking. In a curve, this can easily cause the tire to lock up and the bike to fall. Reasons for not pulling the clutch when leaning a motorcycle: When turning a motorcycle, you should first slow down, shift your center of gravity, and then turn the handlebars. Generally, you do not pull the clutch when turning, only reduce the throttle, and lightly pull or step on the brake to slow down. With the clutch engaged, you can use the throttle and brake to control the speed. When the clutch is disengaged, the bike is in an inertial state and cannot use the throttle to adjust speed, making it difficult to control. Therefore, it is generally not advisable to pull the clutch when turning. When you can pull the clutch on a motorcycle: If the curve is very sharp or the speed is not suitable for being too fast, you need to downshift or even stop, then you should pull the clutch. Shifting gears or stopping also requires pulling the clutch.
