r80 clutch problem when warm

hi there, I´ve got a 1992 bmw r80, recently when warm/hot I have had trouble with the clutch - best described as if the cable is wron, unlubed, stiff. it is not the cable but within the action of the clutch itself and reverts to smooth action when cool?? the other day the clutch was slipping as well ..... does this sound familiar to anyone? I´ve checked play and all oil levels. i´m a little hesitant to take it into a shop as I don´t know if it´s a $300 fix or substantially more??? Any advice..?
