I am asking for opinion or experience on which clutch components to replace.
It feels to me like the clutch is slipping on my Connie C-10 when I give it lots of throttle. The first time I noticed it, I was going through an intersection in second gear. I thought the rear tire was possibly slipping on the light sand in the intersection. The next time I noticed it was hurrying up to pass three cars at 35 mph. Giving the bike a big handful of throttle, it takes off fine, and at about the torque peak the engine rpms seem to go up and the bike isn't moving out like I expected. There is no time to look at the tach as the bike is going way over 35 and the problem is to immediately slow down after the pass is complete.
Reading the COG posts, I see much more about the clutch springs and no posts at all about replacing the clutch plates. My bike is a 2000 vintage, it did have the clutch slave cylinder replaced, and it has 71,000 miles. And I have bought the Murph's clutch spring kit.
