Answer 1

Perhaps asking again over in the MOTORCYCLE section would result in better answers. This is the cycling section - bicycles. Look for cars & other transportation & then motorcycles before submitting question.

You are in the cycling section. Try the motorcycle section. BUT not using the clutch when appropriate will damage the transmission of the bike. USe the clutch whenever shifting between gears, You could get a little extra milage by putting th bike in neutral and using momentum or the downgrade of a hill rather than in gear... but depending on the terrain but any milage gains would be minimal.

Why yes, you can, but the results are very minimal, and not consistent unless mechanically aided. I fear your friend is inflating the impact his supposedly skillful driving has. Bragging i fear. For the fuel you will save, its hardly worth taking your mind of more important issues, like 'staying alive' don't you think.



But yes, its very possible. a little pointless, but common knowledge.

Answer 4

You want the motorcycle section, not using the clutch wont make any difference.
