(hold the front brake while you start it) This is what I do on my Harley as they have a tendency to do that to. When you hit the start button, it breaks the plates free, then hold your clutch in while it warms up a bit. Once the oil is warm, they don't seem to stick. My Drifter was bad for that, I went to Kaw synthetic oil, rarely sticks since.
Regards and such,

I pulled clutch cover down to clean out oil goo and want to replace anything now . bike only has 6700 miles. Maybe since I only ride 6 miles a day I need a block heater for my bike and my truck .
