Default First day of spring and I'm getting ready

Live in middle of Kansas and it's been long winter, day started 30's but by noon it was near 50 so friend and I went to Wichita about 130 miles one way to Harley store to shop.
He bought bunch more t-shirts and I bought wife new textile jacket she wanted and new half helmet.
While we were there talked to service about my clutch being so hard to pull and never being able to get in neutral without shutting off. And just shifting hard al the time I have had in and adjusted numerous times but it just doesn't help.
Have 7000 miles on 13 triglide.
Taking back next week so HD factory rep can look at.
Does other riders have this issue with trike?.
PLEASE RESPOND IF YOU DO
Anyway wonderful day and ride and wife very happy!

It's been a long winter in Michigan too. There is still about 75% snow cover here. I did see my first Robin 2 days ago tho. I hope that's a good sign.

If your Ultra was a 96" equipped one you will notice an increase in clutch pull with the Triglide and any other factory 103" engine equipped bike. The 103's have a heavier clutch spring. You could lighten it up using a ClutchWiz http://clutchwiz.com/.
