Thumbs down 85 honda magna clutch issues??

I have a 1985 honda magna 700 with clutch issues. I can turn on my bike in neutral no problem, but when i hold the clutch and put it into gear but it acts like i dont hold down the clutch, and i put on the rear brake and it dies. I've bleed the fluid, replaced the clutch switch, has a new starter and battery. I look at the wiring diagram and the line for the clutch switch runs to the silicon rectifier and the starter. I ohm tested the wire at the switch to the starter and it reads full strength. But when i check for voltage i get nothing. I'm really confused, some help would be greatly appreciated...

ps all the fuses are good
