New rider here.
I have watched many youtube videos on this topic but not all are consistent and none of them sufficiently clear.
When downshifting say from 4 to 3 to slow down before entering a corner, do you operate the throttle and front break lever simultaneously, like index+middle fingers on break lever and thumb+other two fingers on throttle?
I gather that to downshift and rev match, these steps are needed: 1) slow down by applying front brake briefly + close throttle briefly 2) pull clutch 3) downshift 4) blip throttle and 5) release clutch. What is the ideal sequence? Is it 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 OR 1,2,4, 3, 5? Is the last step of releasing the clutch fast or gradual using friction zone approach?
