It's like anything new. At first it's hard. Because it is new. No one came bursting out of the womb with a throttle in one hand and a clutch lever in the other. (Rumor has it I came out with a stick in my hand, but I digress).
Like playing the piano, playing tennis, dribbling a basketball, with practice you will get it, and my guess is you will get it more quickly than it seems right now.
I shouldn't shout, but PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE is the operative technique here.
Good luck and have fun with it!!!!
