So I was riding along minding my business, got stopped behind a semi-truck turning, I had the bike in 1st gear, clutch in and bike was inching forward.
I thought maybe my clutch cable was starting to break, I rode about half way to my local dealer and then had no clutch at all (hard on the twig and berries riding without a clutch!!) Anyway, the dealer said the primary cover is cracked inside where the clutch cable is secured, has this ever happened to anyone?
Now I'm without my bike for two weeks until the part shows up (I live in B.C) and they said they can't order directly from the States, it has to be shipped through the depot in Toronto, what BS!! Thankfully it still has warranty ('08 Firebolt 12r)
 
I had the samething happen to my Buell. The Stealer told me that it was because of abuse. Said poppin the clutch for wheelies caused it.

Later we found out the inner primary was broke causing the clutch basket to shift out and rub on the outer primary.
