I upgraded to the new deep spline clutch when I had the tranny rebuilt by
Moto Int'l. This required new friction plates. It works very well (after
about 5k) and the old friction plates were demoted to the Ambassador where
they are now being installed (along with new clutch springs).
One thing to check is the clutch cable. Mine was frayed and stretched with
each operation - i.e., not disengaging although the lever was fully actuated.
Sounds simple, but it gives a good clutch a bad name ... and then it breaks.
