remove the master cylinder from handle bar place it lower than slave cylinder so you are pumping fluid up hill then bleed out in normal manner i find this method works for front &rear brakes as well

managed to bleed it up now the plunger had got stuck in the master cylinder probably due to lack of use for 3/4 month not the best weather though has it , but the problem is that even when the clutch is engaged it still moving do the clutch plates want removing and cleaning ???????????

Hi mate, Have you tried to ride it? mine sticks if not used for a few weeks i run it out of gear for a few mins to warm up then scoot it forward and knock it into 2nd gear (with my feet up on the pegs and with the clutch in). It is takes off but as soon as the clutch is released and then pulled back it it works fine, its just where the plates are dry of oil... hope this helps...
