NHK K5R sun visor broke

Bought it about 2 months ago, the sunvisor mechanism was really stiff for all this while, i sprayed wd40 and it became crazy smooth almost loose falling down when slight jerks were given.

was f**cking around with it and it broke

Anybody who faced this situation pls help

Please give me tips as a new rider to deal with the poor low end torque + pillion in traffic

I agree it's a skill issue but are there any habits I could pickup that could make my life easier?

For context I've put on 2.5k kms on the bike solo (first bike) and bearly any with a pillion, with a pillion I basically shift to first gear whenever there's incoming humps or anything and it's very jerky in first gear and makes my pillion is uncomfortable.

Even when riding solo in stop and go traffic, im basically holding half clutch on 2nd gear for over 2 or 3 minutes cause 1st is too jerky. (Won't this wear out the clutch plates faster ?)

How can I improve my skills, I haven't ridden any other bikes till date so this is the only exposure I have wrt bikes.

As the title mentions it gets really stressful for me with a pillion, it's already hot asf out there and a heavy pillion with slow moving traffic that too on inclines having the keep clutch half engaged continuously switching back and fourth from first to 2nd gear drains my soul at the end of the ride.

Please tell me if this is just a skill issue and will get better over time 😭🙏
