If that's the way it's always been ...... I reckon that's just the way it is -
OK, short of a major operation, may I suggest you give a squirt of silicone spray to any moving clutch parts that you can see.
That may not "fix" it, but at least you will have tried -
Also, you may wish to try the @
Ultramaroon method:
Quick & dirty: from @

1. Detach the slave cylinder. Leave the hydraulics alone.
2. Remove the dust boot from the fork.
3. Reach down behind the fork with a finger and feel for the pivot. It's going to be tight because of the retaining clip.
4. Squeeze a decent glob of Lucas Red & Tacky #2 in there with your finger.
5. Jiggle the fork to distribute the grease as much as possible. It'll work in more on its own.
6. Put a dab of grease in the top pivot where the slave pin goes.
7. Reassemble.
Bubba suggests to lube that stupid little spring under the dash that hooks into the clutches working arms. Well, hell, it worked with the squeaky screen door springs, back in the day. -
