How much free play in the clutch cable? I'd try tightening the clutch cable, too much, to see if it makes the clutch release. If it comes loose, ride a little then readjust the cable properly. Just my opinion.1983 GS1100E, 1983 CB1100F, 1991 GSX1100G, 1996 Kaw. ZL600 Eliminator, 1999 Bandit 1200S, 2005 Bandit 1200S, 2000 Kaw. ZRX 1100

Can you see the clutch basket with the oil filler open?
Pull the clutch and see what is and isn't moving.
If the cable free play is a few mm and the lever comes back to the bar and the clutch moves......
Try getting a long flat blade screwdriver and with the lever tied to the bar gently start prying the plates apart at different places around the basket.
Don't go for the big twist first time, gently does it.97 R1100R
