If they dump the clutch its less likely they'll get thrown or spooked. Its also easier on the clutch.

Once she masters the clutch on the ex we can move on to bikes.

I need an excuse to buy another Lifan.

I imagine teaching someone on a ATV would be alot easier. I used to have
a Polaris when the kids were smaller but it was an automatic. I think the
best thing I could do is take them to a big field somewhere and let them
go. With my yard being so small I think it intimidates them. Too many
things to run into (garage, fence, couple trees). Thought about taking
them to the trails I found but not sure that three bikes running around
would be a good thing? I'll figure something out.
