Were is the clutch?

[Kris]

Well, on a BMX do you know the back brake? Its on the left part of the handlebar, on my Pit bike, theres another brake-like thing on the left side of the handlebar, what is that? Is it the clutch?

Also, when I kick start the bike, on the left side of the bike, do I need to hold the clutch and push down the gear lever to make the bike move?
Thanks

Thankyou, what do you mean in neutral?
Also, when I'm changing gear do I have to hold the clutch?

Neutral....Not in gear
No you don't need to use clutch to shift

[DEMON X BOI]

but the genral idea of the clutch is to use it when shifting up and down through the gears lol

im guessing you are a complete newb at biking

Gear box's on MX and pit bikes are constant mesh, YOU DON'T NEED TO USE THE CLUTCH
