I wish I could address the clutch pull. I'm beginning to thing its a stack height issue, but need to learn how to check and look into it further.
I had the same problem with the clutch on my Norton. I fiddled and fiddled with the adjustment and the clutch stack and finally gave up and just bought a new set of clutch plates. They are fairly inexpensive and that solved my problem. When I bought the bike, the crank seal had been blown out from wet sumping and trying to start the bike with a full sump. I think the clutch plates had soaked up too much oil and were swollen and sticky. Again new plates solved that problem.
