Default No clutch lever tension. Cable good, moves ball and ramp

Had to remove clutch basket to replace inner shift arm on my 200 fxdx, while reinstalling tried to adjust clutch but noticed clutch lever had no tension. Checked entire cable, remover transmission cover and checked ball and ramp. Not sure where to go from there?

Look for a long thin rod rolling around under the bike.
