this is probably a stupid question but need to know.  so i got caught in a bottle neck today while riding and was walking the bike while the clutch was pulled in, my pant leg got caught just enough to stop the plate from spinning.  is everything OK, once i let the clutch back out and took off it was spinning again but i just want to double check.

I assume your pants suffered, but everything else should be fine.

If you're really feeling paranoid you could have it off for a look.  But probably all you will find is a little bit of your pant leg in some nook.

If you do have it off, it's a good excuse to check the throw out bearing for any sticking and do a little clean up work behind the scenes.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Actually the pants are fine, it just got caught enough to bind between the cover and pressure plate
