Default Clutch Bite

Hi Ya
My PT has done 40k miles. I've had it for three 2 months and the clutch bite is very high. Is this normal? is it going?
Thanks
Andy

Cool Re: Clutch Bite

Had soonercruiser's clutch assembly replaced last month at 25K....started getting impossible to shift into 1st & 2nd.
It's now been redesigned into a whole assembly....and the hydrolic control of the pressure plate is what is going early, before the clutch plate itself wears out.
(the exact terminology escapes me right now - senior moment)
