New to post, question, seems I have had a whole lot of m-cycles over the yrs that had hyd. clutches and my 1125r is the first that engages at such extreme let out. No feeling the clutch start grabbing at say 60% or 75% let out. No way, my bike is near 85-90% let out before it starts grabbing.
Suppose I should check the clutch fluid and bleed just in case. Especially after I found no anti-freeze in my radiator overflow (and 1/2 rad vol) > thanks to all your posts I saved my motor before I ran it very far and HOT.
Has anyone experienced the same clutch issue?

that's the way the clutch feels. Nothing wrong with your clutch. Good for quick shifting.
