where did my clutch fluid go?

let my 08 sit for a long time (other priorities). aside from the sludge in the fuel tank I have to remove (yes I'm an idiot), and the deceased battery I found that I have zero fluid in the resevoir and no clutch action. there has never been a leak of any fluid on the floor or the bike. In the past when i was actually riding the bike I had to top off the fluid occasionall and changed it a couple of times due to contamination (black fluid) but never had an entire resevoir of it disapear. any ideas?

Check out the slave cylinder. Seals may have gone and leaking inside engine.

Glad I read the whole thing... I thought this was going to be some troll asking where the oil in the clutch went. Like in a wet clutch.

Glad that wasn't the case...
