Sounds more like a transmission problem then a clutch problem to me. It could be the shifter seat cup is broken, is the shifter real sloppy?  You can get H-D ones from Marlin.Easy fix, pull the boot off the shifters and take the shifter out of the shifter socket and check the plastic bushing to see if it is broken.  It could be the synchromesh gears in the tranny.

If you have to pull the tranny, do not forget to have the flywheel checked for cracks and resurfaced.

Here is a link to the shifter parts you may need:
