What did you do in the primary? Maybe, primary chain way too tight if all was ok before your started.

How did you lock it up to break comp and clutch nuts?

You either didn't tighten the clutch gun but or compensator or......what my money is on is that your screwed up the clutch adjustment

Clutch adjustment is also my first thought. Or you left the bar in there between the comp and clutch after you torqued them up.

I thought about that but its in there. and clutch is adjusted rite too the best of my knowledge feels good at the lever pulled the derby cover and fired it up clutch spins and seems to engage when I pull the lever when I go to shift into first it feels like its not letting it go into the gear neutral light comes on in neutral and goes off when I try to shift but its not there bike will role freely
