    Clutch on the bike is disengaging suddenly when I am trying to launch the bike when the clutch lever ain't even released fully and nearly wheelied me off the bike.cannot ride the clutch for a quick take off I don't know what is causing this can someone help me on this.or has anyone experienced this,could it possibly need a fresh fluid changer or newan clutch needed.

    Is the biting point on the limit of where the lever is pulled right in?
    Does adjusting the lever position make any difference?
    Failing the above, bleed the clutch slave.

    You could unbolt the slave and test it with the hydraulics still connected as there's no fluid behind the slave, it just pushes on a rod. You could use this to test that it's actually pushing the rod properly.

    can hydraulic clutch suffer from, ageing, air or moisture (like in brake fluid)?

    possibly, but more likely a failure in the hydraulic pressure. Say it leaked for example, then the clutch wouldn't disengage properly or at all.
