[QUOTE="infrared, post: 1233707, member: 68615"] Sapest, Have you experimented with different number settings on the clutch lever? Sounds like all is reasonably well, but the clutch lever does not fully disengage the clutch. A clutch soak should make this problem better, unless there is foreign matter still sticking to the clutch plates. Were the clutch plates clean, when you did the soak? Even if the dealer bled the clutch, there may still be some air left in the clutch hydraulics. One night, pull the clutch handle all the way to the grip, and tie it there (pulled in fully) overnight. Next morning, let the clutch lever out slowly, and work the lever slowly several times. This trick can sometimes help with any remaining air in there. Check the clutch fluid level, at the sight window. [/QUOTE]
