Need some help

I have a 2011 Street Bob I finaly got back together I have been working on it since Febuary anyway I fired it up yesterday let her warm up excited as hell till I put in gear released the clutch and no where the bike did not move. I have searched already and I have adjusted the clutch several different ways goof proof way , by the book etc..... Still nothing I have even put in gear running with no clutch still nothing. I think my clutch plates are stuck ,so I put the bike in 1st and pushed it backwards about 6 feet and then forwards 6 feet nothing I also checked the clutch release cover everyhting is where it should be , With the derby cover off I can see the clutch moving when move the lever. I am completly stumped I don"t know what to do next .

This was supposed to be my build thread

I don't know how much you disassembled so it's a little hard to diagnose but I'll take a shot. Did you remove the belt? If you did, did you put it back?

If you only worked on the clutch then I would say that the adjustment is holding it open. Try loosening it and go through the complete procedure again. Loosen the cable too.
