The only difference in the way we stack the plates is that we place two steel plates at the very outside of the stack rather than at the inside. We do this for one reason: It moves the entire stack closer on the center hub allowing more clearance between the most outside friction plate and the steel ring of the basket. </TD></TR></TABLE>

CalifBlue... I should have listened to you in the first place.
I tried the Barnett clutch plates as follows:
1st - installed in the sequence that Ducati prescribe. Clutch slipped and stuck disengaged.
2nd - installed in the sequence that Barnett prescribe in the directions included with the plates. Clutch still slipped and stuck disengaged.
3rd - installed in the sequence quoted above (same as Barnett's sequence but with the two plates on the outside. The clutch now works perfectly!!



THANKS!
