I got the impression he was struggling with learning how to let the clutch out more than anything... my first while on a dirtbike was like the video until I got the hang of it. Hope he learns it here before trying to get a stick shift car started from a red light on a hill!
First time I ever got on my Norton, I eased the clutch out, slowly I thought, but it bucked forward driving me back on the seat and I twisted that grip. Man I went in a straight line out my front yard, across the street, into my neighbor's front and into their back yard, up a very lucky pile of dirt and killed it.
Yeah, it's a throttle. Learn to love it...
