Re: how to use hb and clutch at the same time

I just started to learn my handbrake and i have my index on the clutch and middle on the handbrake and Ive been practicing stagard but using the handbrake and it feels like im going to fall off from not holding on. I guess ill get better with practice and it makes my hand sore after ridng like 20 feet.
