My 2008 R1200RT seems to be having a problem with the clutch. Just started the bike for a short ride here in Richmond VA. Bike starts and runs fine, but when engaging the clutch and putting it in gear, the clutch does not return to its normal position and the bike does not engage the gear until a few seconds have passed. If I push the clutch handle out with the back of my fingers, it engages. It also feels a little spongy.
I did take it for a short ride and got it into gears, up to 5th. But again when I release the clutch each time after a gear change, it takes a few seconds to engage the next gear I just shifted into.
Ideas? Is it a problem to drive it to the shop? Or might I damage something??
