Basically you start your bike up and you should be in neutral, pull in the clutch lever. If its a bike usually u push down on the shifter which should be on your left next to your peg. If its an ATV u click it up now at this point rev your bike to around 1/4 the throttle then, very slowly let the clutch go and you should move forward ( It takes a couple of times ) meanwhile pull the throttle to about half way if you feel like your bike is getting loud, pull in the clutch and click your shifter up, you should be in second gear now, unlike when you were in first gear, let go of the clutch completely, your clutch is now fully engaged and if you're pulling on the throttle you're probably accelerating (If your not your bike has some problems). Repeat the process if you would would like to keep going faster. If you would like to stop I suggest you pull in the clutch and shift into first gear and use your brake until you come to a complete stop ( Or one or two mph ). If your stopped give it the same process as stated above. If you would like to slow dorw only slightly just pull in the clutch and don't touch the shifter ( This is best used for turning ).

Where is the clutch fluid in a 96 Nissan 200sx?

The '96 200sx has no fluid for the clutch. This car has a cable operated clutch that needs to be adjusted. If the cable breaks the clutch will not disengage. If the clutch is getting tight it will need lubed. If lubing the cable doesn't work a new cable is needed.
