    Been there done that

    Had the same issue with one of my GSXR's, bleed and bleed and bleed, no good,The cure- remove the sprocket cover with the slave cylinder attached, clamp the slave cylinder in the full in position with a gee clamp. Bleed it up until you get no more air bubble, it will properly still not feel right, don't panic, pump up the master cylinder and hold the lever in, crack the banjo bolt attaching the hose to the cylinder and retighten it while the lever is still pulled in, you will now have a working clutch, they get a wee air lock at the very top of the hose and this is the only way I have found of removing it, short of buying a $100 minivac that is.

    If you're going to insist on wasting time detaching the slave cylinder rather than using the correct bleeding methods already described, simply raise it above the master cylinder and bleed the circuit.
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!
