RE: How To Push Start a Sportbike
I used to put mine in gear before pushing it, then hold the clutch in. You lose speed while putting it in gear. Dump the clutch as your arse hits the seat.

Most of the bikes have drag once the bike is in gear even with the clutch pulled in. It is only drag from the transmission but is very noticeable. You get a higher speed in neutral. The clutch pull, stab into gear is done when you first jump on the pegs. Then as you said dump the clutch as you drop on the seat. Either way works.
