I dont know much about how a clutch works, but I assume a clutch isnt either fully engaged or fully disengaged, it has to be partly at times or else it would be a jerky ride.
How do I know if the clutch is fully disengaged? I’ve always operated the clutch with all four fingers on road pulling the clutch all the way to the handlebars, but now that I’m learning to ride off road, I quickly realised that removing all fingers to operate the clutch could and did result in a complete loss off the left handlebar.
When the clutch lever is pulled with two fingers and hitting my ring and pinky, which is grabbing the handlebar, is the clutch fully disengaged if theres no raise of RPM? I just want to be sure, so I’m not ruining the clutch.

Hello!
I dont know much about how a clutch works, but I assume a clutch isnt either fully engaged or fully disengaged, it has to be partly at times or else it would be a jerky ride.
How do I know if the clutch is fully disengaged? I’ve always operated the clutch with all four fingers on road pulling the clutch all the way to the handlebars, but now that I’m learning to ride off road, I quickly realised that removing all fingers to operate the clutch could and did result in a complete loss off the left handlebar.
When the clutch lever is pulled with two fingers and hitting my ring and pinky, which is grabbing the handlebar, is the clutch fully disengaged if theres no raise of RPM? I just want to be sure, so I’m not ruining the clutch.
Any information is highly appreciated.
Have a great day,
Johannes.
