2009 883 custom clutch problem
Right before winter I brought the bike out and started it up for a ride with no problem. Then before I left I had to turn it off and get something well when I started the bike up everything seemed fine until I put it into gear. I started releasing the clutch and giving it some throttle and all I could hear and feel was a noise that sounded like an extension ladder's rungs being hit by the catches. I said okay and turned off the motor and put it into neutral and tried once more and same thing happened. I immediately wheeled it back up and put it up for the winter. Now with the weather changing I need to get it back on the road. This was my first winter of not riding since I started riding 15 years ago and I am missing being on the two wheels. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Oh and no modifications have been performed on the bike that I know of and I am religious on changing the fluids and keeping the battery on a tinder.

Update: Today I rolled it around a bit with it in gear and clutch in. No problem, so i started it up and let it warm up. Then put it into first and worked fine. So I got it ready to go for a ride to test it out. Well, I put it into first and started letting out the clutch and the same dragging noise happened again. So I am back to square one.
