I been using kriss since 2004.
And i kind of want to upgrade a bike.

Maybe taking a B full. License

But ... holy hell i never used a clutch bike before

How hard is it? Do i need a long time to adept?

Not hard at all. To me it is easier than driving a manual car.

Most trouble with going from non-clutch kapchai to B full bike is learning to feather the clutch and adjusting to the weight/size of the big bike.

But you got so much road experience bro. You can definitely do it with practice. thumbup.gif

Get 250 or smaller cc bikes first till you are comfortable and confident then go for b full

Don't be afraid. Just imagine nearly 2 years ago I sent my son (17 years old at that time) with less than 10 hours experience riding a scooter for his B full license. Straight to B full. He never touch any clutch or geared bike before. After 6 class (about 6 hours practising), he pass his B full biggrin.gif .

Meaning to say, it's not that hard. flex.gif Go for it. Work at your own pace. Go slow and steady. Eventually it will be natural. icon_rolleyes.gif

And don't be fooled by the bike size. Once you get the hang of it, any bike just another bike. No more big bike or such. sweat.gif

not that hard bro. 250s or 500 or 650 or > 800 all identical.. maybe some bike is easier to ride than another, just my 2 cents.

My first time drive clutch motorcycle, took me less than 2 hours before finally feel like an expert. No joke, it's way easier than you thought. It was scary at first, but once I get used to it in that 2 hours, it feel so damn good.
A month later, bought a naked clutch bike, and been riding that bike for a while now. Whenever I go back to clutch motorcycle, it feel so light and awkward. In fact I feel like clutch bike is easier than clutch motorcycle because of the weight lol
Also, once you go clutch, you never go back..

i got my eye on the new honda cb650r,

at first i plan to go 250 first, but i dont think i want to buy another bike,
also most of the guys i talk to, said used the 20k as DP for the 650 instead,
so im leaning to that
