What type of clutch?
by: Judy

Does it have a wet or dry clutch? If it's a wet clutch perhaps your engine oil is low. On wet clutch bikes the same oil that lubricates the bottom end (transmission gears and Crankshaft) also bathes the clutch. If it stops working because it's too hot, it's likely the metal plates are expanding from excessive heat until it locks up.

I suggest you look for a Factory Manual to learn more about the specifics of your bike. There is not enough information here to make a judgement.
