Default Engine Braking

When I'm riding my F4i when I'm trying to keep the speed limit should I hold the clutch when coasting, can that mess up my clutch. I notice that when I let it go, I experience engine braking. Using the clutch a lot is normal right?

Just keep the gas steady. There's no real point in having to work the clutch 2x as much as normal.

learn to use your gears down shifting. It saves on brakes in the long run. It can also save your A$$ in an emercency situation.
