Your clutch should be mechanical/cable not hydraulic. At least my 1100 is.

First thing I'd do is assess the clutch friction point and adjust if it's too low (doesn't grab until lever is almost all the way released.) Second is to put 2-3oz. of Seafoam in the crankcase and go for a 75-100 mile ride to clean sludge and "clutch boogers" out, drain oil while hot, bumping the starter a couple of times while its draining, replace filter and oil with fresh (I like Amsoil 10W-40) and THEN assess its performance.

Good luck!
