So I have a bike that engages the clutch a bit abruptly just on the last bit of travel of the lever before it's fully released. It shifts fine, goes into neutral easily and does not slip the clutch it's just the engagement part that is the problem. I had this before on my XT as well when I replaced the clutch cover gasket, in that case it was just the cable not adjusted correctly and solved the problem. Can this also be caused by :

Wrong oil
Worn clutch basket
Worn clutch plates
Cable adjustment ?

Will start with the cable this afternoon then do an oil change as well

Mileage on the bike is 35700km
