As said the bleed point is on the slave cylinder, once you get mostly fluid in the line there is no need to bleed them in the same way you to the brakes as the far greater fluid movement does it for you.

If it hasn't been used for a while it could have rusted the push rod (I'm assuming its similar to the SV but with a hydraulic slave) and its returning too far.

I also found with the VFR though that the fluid got well manky (faster than brake fluid) and a change of fluid made a massive difference.
