Ok, you seem to have understood the principles behind the controls. It just takes time and practice to get acquainted to it. Like you know if you turn the throttle more, it'll go faster and vice-versa, or clutch control for that matter. Beginners will normally suddenly give too much throttle or suddenly cut off throttle and make the bike/car jerk. Don't worry, as it takes practice to get used to it. Also keep in mind, you'll mostly be running in 1st gear and jerks are magnified to slightest change to throttle in lower gears. In higher gears it becomes smoother and controlling clutch/throttle is easier.

Noticed that most begineers are ardent followers of traffic rules. Once they become experts, respect for traffic rules/etiquettes seems to fly out the window. Hope you are a new breed of riders that will make our traffic better in the future .
