What is wrong with my Clutch/Drivetrain?

[SideshowBob]

I was out Saturday doing a final post rebuild check up ride and testing the results of the knobby knife. My little test track is very tractable, a mix a clay and sand and pretty virgin stuff. I was cracking the throttle and mostly riding normally with a little hard shifting when I noticed my clutch lever couldn't be pulled all the way into the bars and the clutch wasn't disengaging.

This isn't "drag". The clutch doesn't seem to want to disengage. I bled everything to make sure, no change. When I had it up on the stand running I could get the clutch to disengage (tire to stop spinning in first), but I had to be absolutely crushing the clutch lever in to make it happen.

Did I bend a shift fork? Is something shot?

I have an entire extra engine (same year MC250) that I have been planning to take apart to play with. I took the clutch cover off of it last night, do I unscrew the clutch springs to get the basket to come out? Could I just swap basket for basket to see if that helps?

What steps should I take? Help!
