Default Choppy,Jerky when engaging clutch

This is a new problem with my bike after logging in more than 100 miles, when I engage the clutch Im getting a firm choppy,jerky response, could this be something other than a clutch problem?
PLEASE HELP..... I miss my evening ride!

Open the side cover & see if one of the clutch pucks fell apart & is caught between the pressure plates.

Can you elaborate a little? Is this something new? Has it gotten worse?
