Sounds like you just need to adjust your clutch:

Try the adjustment on the Clutch lever, Tightening the cable will allow your clutch to disengage fully which should help.

*** Adjusting the Clutch Rod Adjustment Screw *** This should be checked and set properly before relaying on your lever adjustment.

This is real important so please read.

1. Back off the cable adjustment at the clutch lever all the way until the cable is loose as a goose.
2. Look on the sprocket cover. See that round plastic cover? Pry it off and you will see a bolt and a locknut in the hole.
3. Loosen the locknut.
4. Back off the adjustment screw in the center. Then tighten until you feel resistance. If you aren't sure back off and do it again a couple of times. The resistance that you feel are the clutch springs being compressed. At the point where you just feel the resistance back the screw out 1/4 turn.
5. Tricky part - while holding the adjustment screw in position, tighten the locknut.
6. Adjust the cable at the clutch lever - see book for proper adjustment.
7. Put the little plastic cover back on the clutch cover (assuming you still had one to begin with).

Try this and let us know.
