how do you know if your stack hieght is off?

I just had my clutch done. The clutch still seems a little off. If I slowly engage the clutch the bike will shake quite a bit. I also noticed that when I rev the motor with the clutch fully engaged the bike will still try to pull a little! Is this right? If not what do you suggest? thanks !

Did You clean the fibers and steels good from the grease they're when You got them? Use some brake cleaner or equivalent the get them clean. Mine also became "shakey" when I wasn't carfull in cleaning. Little bit of drag is normal especially when oil/engine if cold, but You shouldn't notice it if Your on the bike but when rear wheel is of the ground it will spin a little... Did You put the first smaller fiber and the rattle rings inside?

Man I should have been clear. I have no mechanical skills. My mechanic is the one who did the clutch. I hate to say it but I don't have the tools or know how to put in a clutch. I just noticed the clutch seem to vibrate when hooking up! I will forward him the questions you guys offered and see what he says. Thanks!

8 mm socket, and a allen wrench are all that are needed to change the clutch out......., oh, and a screwdriver if you dont have the fairing cut around the clutch cover like some of use do........
