Clutch brake lever acting up?!?!

So today after work I was in my work's parking lot and put Sofia in 1st gear and she started to roll with a good amount of umph. I had the clutch lever all the way in yet the gear was engaged. As I was rolling forward in the parking lot I tried to put her back in N with the clutch lever in. No luck. Very difficult to move the shifter.

I finally put enough brake pressure to stop and she died. I the put her in N very easily w/o engine running and started her back up. Same thing happened.

So I rolled my tiny adjustment wheel on my Carbon CRG shorty lever to push the lever away from the clipon. Thinking I needed more room on the lever and action on the lever to push in more to disengage the motor from the tranny. Started her up and she's fine and everything is normal. I tried fine tuning the sweet spot on the lever and think I'm close.

Only thing is is the lever is about 3/8" farther away from the clipon and nearly maxed out on the adjustment. Not a huge deal but makes me wonder what the hell would cause such a need for an adjustment? Could there be something going on I need to investigate further or is it just normal wear and tear on components and adjustment is needed?!?

Everything feels normal now. Lever boot and action is all normal looking/feeling. Nothing broken, loose, or torn haha. Thought I'd run it by all of you haha.

TIA

Hmm.. I'd bleed the system first.. then put it back to where it was and see if that was it. If not look at your clutch i assume..

^^ yep what he said.

Quick tip on how to bleed the clutch? Don't have time to mine through the search function today lol.

What happens if you keep the bike in first gear, clutch lever pulled, just standing and waiting? If the hydraulics looses pressure (means the bike wants to roll away after a couple of minutes) and there is no visual leak, it's the "classic" Brembo problem: the master cylinder suffers "internal bleeding" and needs to be replaced (or it's sealings to be replaced and properly cleaned).

The motor dies from the pressure of being in gear but the bike isn't moving. It's fine now since I adjusted the clutch lever.

Ok so I just read a few posts on bleeding the master cylinder. Should take me 30secs and I'll know a lot more.

UPDATE ICYC:

Moved my clutch lever back to where the issue was and bled the master cylinder with an 11mm wrench and voila!!! All good now. Just thought I'd share

Now keep an eye on it and if it starts to feel different and you bleed it again and have air in it again soon you need a new MC
