Thanks for the reply, I appreciate the help.
1. Running Maxima 80 transmission oil. They say that is their equivalent of 10-40.
2. Attempting to start the motor both hot and cold, air temp was about 70 degrees.
3. Clutch lever adjustment puts it at it's furthest point possible away from the handlebar, I was thinking this would give the best leverage for
disengagement.
4. I am running the stock clutch lever. The perch may be inset about 1/4" to 1/2" over the stock position due to dealer installed hand guards.
5. The rear wheel does spin when the bike is put in gear with the wheel elevated and motor running.
I did call the dealer today, and they duplicated the same result on two new Betas on the showroom floor. They are going to call American Beta on Monday.
