Partly engage the clutch and add throttle. It's just feel and sound. That whole friction zone thing is more art than science. Don't over think it. If you're rolling back let out a bit on clutch, if it starts sounding like it will stall, add some throttle.
I've got it going from a stop in 4th gear with feathering clutch and cracking throttle. These bikes can recover from newbie mistakes.
Essentially, if the engine is revving high you can let out more clutch. If its bogging, add throttle.

Thanks  that's what I was trying to do, I guess I was just not letting out the clutch enough because when I would she would move forward an inch or so and then I think I was getting nervous and pulling the clutch back in so she would roll back. I'll try again next sunday, hopefully it will go better.
I'm used to the rolling back in a car, just not with the weight of a bike between me legs.
