Default Clutch pulled in and wont roll

I have a 2010 fatboy lo. when the bike is off and i pull the clutch in to roll the bike out of the shop it will hardly roll. I am trying to roll it backwards if that makes a difference. It works fine when i start the bike.

Thanks in advance

Sounds like you need a clutch adjustment. It's pretty easy to do.

What happens if you put it in neutral?

Forget what I wrote. I thought you said that the clutch was not disengaging when the engine was turned off.

I thought the same thing when I first did that. But definately is normal when the bike is off.

I leave my bike in Neutral when it's in the barn. That makes it a lot easier to roll around.
