My '80 does this and it appears the "new" '79 as well.  I attribute this to nothing more than the surface tension of the oil, particularly if it's a cooler day.  Letting the engine oil temp. warm-up slightly and then pulling the clutch lever a few times alleviates the issue. Once free, there's no issue from day to day. 
Install this when the bike is being started after a "rest".  Clutch-plates are free by the time you're ready to ride.

publicación escocesa=34115 ID de usuario=109Mi moto del 80 hace esto y parece que la "nueva" del 79 también. Lo atribuyo simplemente a la tensión superficial del aceite, sobre todo si hace frío. Dejar que la temperatura del aceite del motor suba un poco y luego accionar la maneta de embrague varias veces alivia el problema. Una vez suelta, no hay problema de un día para otro. 
Instálala al arrancar la moto después de un descanso. Los discos de embrague estarán sueltos cuando estés listo para conducir.
   
 
Mi pregunta, Scotch:

¿No es perjudicial mantener los resortes del embrague presionados con la palanca sujetando la manija?

¿Podrían perder dureza o rigidez?

En cuanto al tema del hilo, nunca he tenido ese problema con mis motos. Suelo usar aceites de alta calidad.

It does NOT get LEFT ON.

Not going to start another "what Oil do you use", thread.

Even if clutch is adjusted properly, always, always, always before starting I put it in first gear, pull clutch in, then rock and back and forth until clutch plates free. Find neutral, start, drop into first nice and easy... no KaKlunk...

wanted to write EXACTLY the same, but you mentionend it first
