Clutch pump/fade

I am having problems with the clutch on my 748! When i had it serviced had new clutch plates, and fluid, which then resulted in the clutch fading like rubbish brakes might on a track day when they get hot. On motorway runs when the clutch was spinning fast (over 8k revs) the biting point would come right back to the bars....

I bled the fluid, got some air out - this improved it and i thought it was fixed. BUT, it came back when i did a track day and every session after about 5/10mins the clutch would come back to the bars without doing much (scary going down the gears into a corner! Engine braking comes a bit sooner than expected ;-).

So far any air has been bled out of the fluid twice now, so it's not that anymore - anyone have any ideas what it might be now????

Also makes a BIG vibration when i give it big revs to pull away.... (not sure if related)

Thanks for any advice!
