Default Clutch not disengaging

Got a 2006 Sporster Custom with about 14k miles. Bike was sitting in one spot in garage for about 2 weeks since I last rode it. Went to move it and clutch cable is not disengaging. Opened inspection plate on clutch cover. Cable is pulling fine, but it does feel different. I can shift it up and down in gears no problem. Starting to do some research on why before I take it all apart to see whats going on. Any ideas out there on what might have caused this while it was sitting in garage?

clutch plate's may have stuck together.
pull clutch in, put it in second ,put front wheel against the wall, hit the starter.
