Help required with Yamaha clutch/gearbox

[Stubby Pete]

I've got a problem with my 2001 R1 clutch and gearbox.

The engine is fitted to a car and the clutch won't disengage, the actuator arm on the gearbox has no spring but 1st, neutral and 2nd can still be selected but no drive.

Is this a common problem, are there any easy way to resolve it or do I have to strip the clutch assembly this weekend?

As I'm more into cars than bikes, the wet clutch and sequential gearbox is new to me so any help would be greatly appreciated.

that model r1 clutch is notorious for hammering the clutch plates so that would be my first call....
