New Clutch springs and plate = good gear

just did some TPO springs and a paulimoto plate and spyder spring retainer, clutch is SOOO much stronger now, slicker engagement, better feel at lever (a bit harder to pull but not too much). the old plate had what i would say to be burn/rust and the wear on the inside face was very uneven, probably why it slipped like a mofo when hot. stock springs showed signs of rust even tho the stock cover had never been off.

I agree my pot metal stock pressure plate was not engaging evenly and looked like it was glazed and worn in an uneven manner. I did have some clutch shudder that is gone with my aftermarket billet pressure plate. this was probably made worse by my going with a 2 tooth smaller rear sprocket.
