clutch problem

My clutches always seem to grab at stops. and make for hard shifts. the friction plates are new.the arm is adjusted proparly. it never had this problem until i put in new plates. it seems like the clutch lever is not pulling far enough/ but it is adjusted perfect. if you loosen up it will allow easy shifts and no grabbing, but it will slip at high rpm. it is put together right i checked numerous times. running 20w50 oil. can anyone shed some light on why my clutches always seem to grap even with a new clutch cable and plates. it will only shift while revving. will not shift at idle.
