did it fall over?
Oh dear...
you need to take the plates out & clean them with brake & clutch cleaner.
The oil will not burn off.
Check the push rod bearing in the outside plate, it could prob do with a good clean to get clutch dust out, whilst you are at it.

Thanks for your help gents I will take the plates out and clean them, The bike is in bits at the mo and engine is out, I had drained all the oil but one of the kids thought they would help by moving the engine on to its side for me whilst I was at work, came home to find a dribble of oil coming out of the clutch cover.
Kids are now in bed with no dinner!
