Clutch not making bike roll freely, would love some addvice

Was working on my 1981 seca 550 and like a total dumbass dropped my bike on the right side when taking it off the center stand. Now when I put it in gear and try to roll it with the clutch pulled in it fights me. I can still roll it but there's something pushing back on me. Any advice on what I can do to ix this??

 

We need a picture of the damage.. The clutch cover and actuation mechanism is on that side so you may have disturbed something in the drop - similarly the cable routing.

 

I agree, might have pinch the cable or something else, get us a pic of the area and we might be able to see it. Run your hand along the clutch cable starting from where it attaches up the clutch arm. You might be able to feel distortion in the cable as the protective sheath got flattened out, maybe.

 

on the right down tube there is a wire guide look to see if it is bent in and pinching the cable. next thing would be the cable holder on the top of clutch cover could have bent that. if the holder bent back toward the rear of bike it would not allow full release of clutch when lever is pulled.
also check that the brake pedal is moving freely and the arm on the drum is moving freely

 

the wet clutch that is in motorcycles never really completely disengages. This is due to the oil friction on the clutch plates. When you put the bike on the right side all the oil even from the transmission ended up in the clutch cover fully coating the clutch.
this is most likely the problem.
when I push my bike when in gear I feel resistance more with the clutch pulled in then when the bike is in neutral.
if you were to put the bike on center stand with motor running in gear with clutch pulled in a the tire will still spin.
it is a normal thing.

I read this after my morning ride with oil warm I only felt a little resistance to pushing in gear with clutch pulled in. after the bike got cold the resistance was more noticeable.
