Some people say don't use the clutch others say you have to. I think you should use the clutch everytime you shift. Not using the clutch puts alot of stress on your shifting fork if you aren't at the right rpm's. With alittle practise you will have no problem shifting while do'in wheelies.

you don't need to use the clutch ALL the time. As long as you are carfull and not jamming it into gear when the rpm's aren't right, you shouldn't have any problems.

I only use the clutch to get into first, and then I just shift...up or down. Not using the clutch doesn't hurt anything under typical riding conditions.
