Have you taken the MSF course? They should have mentioned that. Really at no time should the clutch be pulled in unless coming to a stop... having power to the rear wheel helps stabilize and smooth the bike. If you need to dampen some of the jerking in 1st or 2nd gear... use the rear brake gently instead or just engine brake.
Regardless, all braking done before a turn and preferably maintain or accelerate out of a turn. Cagers make this extra difficult because they tend to enter a turn fast and brake the whole way out. Especially on on-ramps.
Blah got caught up talking with my brother so response was posted too late.... for the record I agree with Eric and Jono... so yes that is exactly what i'm saying.
