There have been several days in the 20s here in PA. I am happy to say that the 885 has been starting with no problem. Full choke, hit the starter, bang. But I have noticed one thing. I can barely move the mc. It does not want to roll at all. Could someone tell me what is going on? I assume it has something to do with the main sprocket connecting to something in the engine where there is oil.

cold thick oil in the gearbox = stiff to move ....also the clutch plates are probably grabbing with the thick ness of the cold oil .
If all is well after it warms up don't worry...... as the dealer would say " they all do that "
I suspect if you tried to flex the drive chain, you would find a fair amount of stiffness from there too, a warm chain is far more supple.
