What is the term pull in the clutch on a motorcycle?
To pull in the clutch is to disengage the engine from the rear wheel of the bike by using the clutch lever. The lever is usually located on the left side of the handlebar, and is used when shifting gears, or performing maneuvers that require a great deal of control over the motorcycle. When you pull the clutch in, the engine will continue to run, however, there will be less or no power actually being fed to the rear wheel. I hope that answers your question!
