Question about Noise while releasing clutch

Ok, so the end of the riding season is here. And the judder did not really go away. Some quick fixes helped a little bit. But never really gone. Always there on a cold engine start…
So I chose to bite the bullet and install new clutchplates…
Taking out the old plates I noticed the anti judder spring had made a deep groove into the steelplate which it is pressed against.
Then looking at the new set and checking the manual “there should not be a groove in any of the plates!!!”.

I’m still working on putting everything together, so did not ride it yet… But I think this has to be the cause of a not functioning anti judder spring.

At the next valve service interval (40K, I think) I'll probably follow suit and replace those plates- hopefully, Barnett makes them now, including stiffer springs.

Also, I continue to have to bleed my clutch every so often. I obviously have a small air leak in the system somewhere. My guess is the banjo bolt at the MC. I'll address that when I get to that point.
 
What's the part number for the Triumph kit? I don't see it listed. Thanks

Apparently no Barnett Clutch kit in production. :-(
See page 108

I emailed them to see when they might offer a kit for our bikes and will share their response

can you measure the clutch wear for us? do you have a caliper?

hey @TheFALCON can you measure the clutch plates for wear and tell us how many miles you rode until you replaced clutch plates :) here are the specs

Plates were all within specs. Bought the bike with 39000 kms, the judder was there since I owned it, but gotten worse gradually.
Changed it with 48000 KMS
