How is the clutch lever operated on a motorcycle?

  1. By pushing a pedal with the right foot

  2. By twisting the left handgrip

  3. Squeezing a lever with the left hand

  4. By pulling a lever with the right hand

The correct answer is: Squeezing a lever with the left hand

A Pushing a pedal with the right foot is incorrect because most motorcycles do not have a foot-operated clutch lever. B: Twisting the left handgrip is incorrect because this controls the throttle, not the clutch. D: Pulling a lever with the right hand is incorrect because this typically controls the front brake, not the clutch.
