Slight movement at stoplight with clutch in

[LakeDrunk]

Yesterday I was out on my 05 and when at a stoplight in first gear with the clutch pulled in, the bike moved forward just a little like the clutch wasn't fully engaged. It did it again when I got home in the garage. Other than that, it shifts like normal and seems to run exactly like it always has.

Sounds like cable adjustment to me ? Check you have no more than 3 mm at the lever . Also check your span setting , if your lever span is not enough , the clutch won't fully engage !

Or disengage , to use the correct terminology !

If it happened suddenly - Check the lower end of the cable (engine end) for fraying.

Adjust the clutch exactly as per specifications. If all is correct then there may be some wear on the lifter mechanism.

I've read a few posts about adjusting the clutch, I'll give it a try after work.

Look here; if we're going to all start being pedantic regarding terminology - I will have to start looking for the thesauri.
