Once clutch pressure is lost your confidence will be too. If you have a presistent slave leak you may lose pressure at any time, which can be a real bummer when you want to shift gears, or even get out of gear, like when you stop! I have used various methods of pushing fluid from master thru line to slave, not using pedal. At resevouir, remove cap and all fittings on cap. Cap has large hole in center to permit sensor, unneeded. But then use air valve from bike tire and portion of tire to fit inside of cap and form airtight seal, may need gasket. Then you can use tire pump to 'inflate' reservoir and force fuid thru line. Once 'inflated' open clutch bleeder valve and fluid flows. Continue to monitor fluid level and run till no more bubbles, close off bleeder. But be aware if slave leaks this only temporary. Alternative is to get into first gear and drive to shop in first gear, at 2am only.
