The point about the clutch is very valid. The most important thing I learnt from a Chris Birch training day was to ride with your guns out like a cowboy - one finger on the clutch one finger on the brake. This habit will save you many times - about to flip or whisky throttle- just pull in the clutch and once you know the engagement point you will be able to climb in just about any gear (sometimes accompanied by OEM gas gas clutch squeal)

Adjust the clutch to disengage before the lever hits the rest of your fingers that way you don't need to let go of the bars when you come to a stop
