So I've been doing the fill, bleed, refill then repeat bit for the last 4 months or so. I had checked all the things that I've found on this great site but have not been able to actually pinpoint the cause. When I bought the bike the PO said he would get a few drips of fluid after a lot of city ridding. I could never find it. I had nearly given in and figured it must be boiling out from heat from a hot bearing even though I had found no bearing issues.
So I was in the middle of my bleeding exercise when I noticed my clutch line had an air bubble in between the clear sheath and the SS braiding. It seems as though the line has a separation somewhere at the crimp on the slave end of the line. I could never trace the leak because it was going down the back side of the fitting then I think when enough accumulated the wind from riding carried it off. Anyway just want to put that out there because its not one I had seen on here. Ride On!
