QUESTION: Yes, It feels great!

Answer
It sounds to me like the clutch is to tight. Make sure the finger for the rod on the right side of the trans is all the way back when you put it together. When adjusting it loosen the cable so you have alot of play in itbefor adjusting the clutch itself. When you adjust the clutch turn the screw inward, just until it touches then back out about 1/8 of a turn and then adjust he clutch lever
Good luck and happy riding
