Hello from VA

Hello everyone I am new to the site and to riding. I just bought an 85 Honda Night Hawk From a friend that had been sitting a few years with 11,500 miles on it. I finally got it started and took it for a ride but the clutch seems to slip after it warms up, I bled the clutch system and this seemed to have helped a little.Does the engine oil have anything to do with it slipping? Any help would be great!!

Could be the oil if it is a synthetic with the conditioners and **** in it. Or it could be an 11k mile clutch that is fubared and needs replacing...
