Probably at the slave cylinder

Into the engine oil? Is that level rising?

that would be my guess. the older aprilias had that problem with a seal letting go. Got an aftermarket slave cylinder and all was good.

there's gotta be a seal somewhere... Damn, I just read the above.... I hope that isn't it

No idea, but hopefully it is nothing serious.

it IS serious if fluid is disappearing. I'm going with slave cylinder leak.

Where is the slave cylinder? Outside or inside the engine case? I've never really looked since I don't own anything with a hydraulic clutch.
