Hi Greg,

You've probably already checked this, but you might want to give the
clutch cable a good examination for frays, etc. I had one that was
fraying that gave me very similar symptoms. Not saying that's the
problem, but worth a look, anyway.

at a stop if I have ANY freeplay at all in the clutch cable. In
Seattle
traffic, this is unacceptable. On rides, I find myself tightening the
adjuster sometimes, even though there was no real freeplay to begin
with, as the clutch drags more and tries to pull me into
intersections.
What I experience is the freeplay getting larger as the bike gets hot.
