Default Clutch Problem 2002 SV650s

Bike was knocked over and landed on clutch lever, everything looks fine other than end of lever (ball) broke off. But bike won't start. With bike in 1st and clutch pulled in won't roll. Before I take it was hoping for some insight to what I can do about it. Thanks

Hard to say without seeing the bike.

Are you sure the lever was the only thing damaged, did the shift lever itself get damaged ? Would check your clutch lever from one end to the other, how does it feel when you pull it in ? like before the drop ?
Follow it to the other end when you squeeze the lever does everything operate right at the other end ?.

I also have a clutch problem without falling off my bike...

Sometimes that I had parked it with the 1st gear and try to unparked it the 1st gear won't go off unless I turn on and walk it for at least 1,5m.

Isn't that weird? it;s doing that from the bought!

I told my local reseller also that 3 times until now when I had put 2nd gear and the moto ride at least 10m the 2nd gear goes off and bring the moto to neutral.
Not in a bad change the 2nd gear wont fit but AFTER 10 m riding with the 2nd gear!!!

The Suzuki reseller told me to bring it to them to see the clutch but I'm afraid to open it because it's a new one...

As you know you need to pull the clutch in to start the bike, Maybe the clutch switch has been dislodged or broken in the fall and is not working.

If your bike is still under warrenty you should not touch it, Take it back to your seller and get them to sort it..
