Brock:
It may be a good idea to flush the oil in the clutch, there could be some air or water in there. Its not hard to do and uses brake fluid, its certainly cant hurt.
saaz:
What grade oil are you using? The heavier the oil the more likely drag happens. As Brock suggests, a bit of gunk and water/air in the clutch fluid can lead to the clutch not fully disengaging. A bit of a leak on the slave cylinder seal can also give trouble.
