Hi gonna explain the problem an the fix.Take it to a very good motorcycle shop tell them you want the clutch changed the clutch cable changed and a full tune -up oil an the works let them know the clutch was grabbing.It will be fixed it sounds like the clutch plates might be warped an grabbing not an adjustment issue the plates aren't releasing inside the engine and are locking up. ......Good Luck hope this helped old bike mech :-)
Hi, now I am not family er with this bike but I have seen issues like this, at worst the clutch plates are worn out, next, just a bit worn or clutch cable has stretched, is there any free play on clutch leaver? is there a link adjuster on the cable?

Could be burnt, or scorched clutch discs. DId you check the oil lately? I believe the Madasses have a wet clutch, right? Hope you didn't burn up the whole clutch basket. But you may have. Check the oil now!!!

sounds to me like your friction plates in your clutch assy. are worn down to much.

change the clutch basket and buy a new cable they get stretched out and the basket gets worn severly

check your spacers to be sure you havent locked the clutch assembly directly to the motor shaft
you should be able to turn it fairly free less some clutch drag

The only adjustment you'll probably need is to get the air out of the clutch line. Loosen the bleeder screw, and put a two or three foot vacuum line on it. Submerse the other end of the line in a bottle of brake fluid. Pump the clutch untill no more bubbles are coming out of the hose into the bottle. Be sure to keep the reservoir topped up while you do this. Hold the clutch down, and tighten the bleeder screw. Some hydraulic clutches do have an adjustment on the rod that goes from the slave cyllinder to the pressure plate. I'm not sure about yours. If there is a nut on the rod, you can adjust it somewhat. You want it set so that there is just a little bit of play between the rod and the pressure plate where the rod goes. If none of this helps, you mayneed to replace the slave cyllinder.
