When I start up my 1985 GL1200 Aspy, in gear (clutch in) it is a little in gear. I read the manual and it stated the clutch does not have an adjustment. I have not known a bad clutch to act this way they usually slip. Any idea's what the next step should be? Bleed the clutch?

It wouldn't hurt to bleed it, but if I remember right, my 85 1200 did the same thing when it was cold.

Yes only when she is cold - thanks for the feedback

the cold oil is causing the clutch plates to stick together more than when it's cold

Thanks - that must be my 20 part of 20W50 oil I put in her.
