Clutch slip or just me?

no it's on the disengage of clutch when taking off. I am stopped at redlight, and when I start to roll off at the very end right before I let go of the clutch it has a drag feeling. it only happens for a split second and it's gone.
If you can picture this. I have the clutch pulled in and when I release the clutch, the bike starts to roll and i am applying the throttle slowly. right before I totally let off the clutch there is a drag feeling. So it's the last 1/2 to 1/4 inch of the clutch before total disengage. the beginning and all the other gears are fine it's just on take off.

I'm currently on my 4th HD Touring bike and I have always put new grips on the bike before I picked it up new at the dealer. This time I did not. I was having a really strange, goofy feeling in the clutch until I figured it out. I was not use to the rubber OEM grips and my leather gloves were sticking to the rubber on the grips causing a feel much like you describe. Figured it out when I rode with out the gloves and since have installed the Kury grips I've always used, problem solved for me.
