[QUOTE="Fred T, post: 82293, member: 22413"] [b]My last bike was an 81 KDX 175 too![/b] I just got a new KDX 220 and after taking 17 years off riding I was just a tad bit rusty. I stalled my bike a couple times until I learned to take most corners with the clutch lever in and either fan the clutch a tad coming out or knock down 1 or 2 gears while negotiating the apex of the turn. It's just something to paractice -but this last weekend I rode 86 miles of trail and never stalled the bike once by concentrating on keeping the clutch in every time I hit the rear brake or went into a corner hard. I got a set of Sunline shortly "two finger" levers from Rage performance and they help with all the clutch work. I used to ride 125's for years and learned this technique on them and it has carried over to every thing I ride now. Back in 1976 and 1977 the little Kaw 125 I rode in the Enduroes around here needed to keep the throttle pegged and use the clutch constantly to keep it ripping down the trail. [/QUOTE]
