A car is not a motorcycle. If you're turning and you hit the clutch all of a sudden.. what then? you're trying to turn a motorcycle and you can't transfer the weight to your rear wheel. What if you're too fast? And what if he needs to get on throttle and with panic, he lets go of the clutch too fast..

Like I said. It's not a good technique or idea on a motorcycle.

Believe me I've shifted to neutral by accident a couple times while i was going in a turn. It's not pretty.
