Again, the bike has been without oil for a couple of months. Once everything fires up and starts moving (heat and so on) I'm sure the clutch will pop out of it's slumber. If not I will revive this thread again
Please remind yourself somehow to put oil back in it before you crank it over. I like to put blue masking tape over the ignition keyhole and on the oil cap - that way I have visual reminders from two different directions.
