Thought I would update where I am in the clutch operation issue. I have discovered that the rubber dust boot was restricting with travel of the clutch fork. I removed the dust boot and the clutch will now disengage. Problem now is the angle of the fork when the bearing makes contact with the pressure plate. I have moved the pivot pin forward about 1/4" which has helped but when the thrust bearing contacts the pressure plate and I back off a few mm, the clutch fork is 8 degrees forward of perpendicular. The fork should be either perpendicular or 5-8 degrees behind perpendicular. So it looks like I just need to increase the length of the pivot pin to get things working correctly. Not sure what I'm going to do about the dust cover.
