Default Clutch engagement point

I've noticed that my clutch doesn't start to disengage until the lever is more than half way back to the bar. When I rode it home initially, the clutch lever went all the way to the bar without disengaging the clutch....luckily I didn't have to stop. After the bike cooled down (this was prior to my coolant flush which fixed the cooling issue) everything was fine. It disengages and engages just fine, but I just wish it would disengage sooner as I pull the lever in. I know it's hydraulic, but if it were cable it's acting like the cable is loose and not disengaging until the lever is half way back. What do I need to check? The level in the reservoir looks a little low....about halfway down the view window. Could is just be low on fluid?

Thanks in advance guys,

Warner

Never mind.....it was just low. I popped the cover off, filled it up with DOT4 brake fluid and all is well with the CBR world again.
