Weird clutch problem

Thanks for the reply. This one has stumped me. I have taken the tranny out three times now thinking maybe there was a problem with the fork or throw out bearing then fly wheel. Upside is I can now take the tranny out in around 1/2 an hour by myself (timed). It did work but the clutch was worn out and was starting to slip fairly bad still drivable but end of it's life. The clutch is an oem and was new. I have bled the master and slave. Could it just be a defective preasure plate? If that were so wouldn't it slip?
It drives great and doesn't slip at all. If it were a defective or weak preasure plate how can I test it? Do I have to just put another one in to see if it works?

again thanks for the help.
