Clufch question
Out for a ride today and realize that my foot feels a notchy grind at every shift. Feels like clutch dragging or not being totally disengaged. Anybody have this happen? When I Stop it feels normal no low idle smooth engagement only 400 miles on oil change 32k on 06 bike. Trying to figure out if it is a warped clutch disc or the slave/master cylinder weak. Happens even when I pull the clutch all tbe way in and wait to shift.

Thanks for the reply. Think maybe it's warped? I don't drag race just hammer on it on rides. Guess I'll have to take it out have a look. What do you recommend stocker or what?

32,000+ miles on a oem clutch? Maybe you should stay with oem, just a thought,

No it's not warped ... It's just worn out ..When you pull the cover you will see the last clutch plate is clocked different than all the others .. When the clutch wears out that last plate gets stopped by the basket and causes what you are feeling ..
You best clutch is the factory clutch ...replace all the steels and fibers and springs and you will be good to go for another 32k ..
