Having a very strange issue with my clutch and was referred here as many of you owned/worked on/or raced on the SV platform. When pulling in the clutch lever, the bike still feels to be in hanging in gear; it is very difficult to push the bike around the garage while it is "in gear". The bike moves as expected when neutral is selected, but, all other gears it has the same symptom. Clutch cable is in good shape and adjusted properly, worm gear plunger has been disassembled, re-greased and adjusted (in good working order). Pin to the clutch case is clean and free of debris and moves as expected when pulling the clutch lever.
So I took apart the clutch yesterday and found some black spots on a few of the steel discs, not blue at all, just black (see picture). All of the fiber plates seem to be in good shape, but, I am very new to this, and it is my first motorcycle clutch job, any info or thoughts on the issue would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
