Hi guys, I have an issue with my clutch pressure seems to only act up when it warms up I have replaced the master n slave cylinders I have bled countless times, the guy I bought it from said the master was new it came with the car, I have no leaks however the stock line was bipassed with a straight line from the master to slave, before I buy a new master cylinder because I don't know how long the one that came with the car sat for in the elements. Any other suggestions???

Agreed, could be the fork although I also first would completely inspect and test the system for leaks and most importantly, air...the damn things due to the two bleed points can be a hassle to get all of the air out, and hopefully you are aware there are two bleed points...

The bleed points dont apply as they were bypassed. So im leaning towards the fork flex we will kno soon when i get the time to swap it.
