Personally, how I bump start is, I put it in 5th and quickly release the clutch. I know exactly how much release will start the engine so I only release the proper pressure then instantly thrust the clutch back in and then release clutch and press throttle. I maybe lose 2-3mph and it's not a rough transition at all. When my uncle was riding with me he didn't even know I was EOCing until I told him.
