Opinion on quiet clutch set-up

I was hoping to get some ideas on how to quiet the old clutch a bit. I have an open clutch cover and I love the sound the clutch makes, but lately there seems to be a lot more "clang-clang-clang". This clutch has only 10K on it. But I was wondering if I changed the basket and plates to a lighter set up, if it would also quiet her down a bit? (Kill to birds with one stone type of thing...easier to sell it to my wife that way.) Like I said the clutch is now louder then my Arrow's. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I noticed a significant drop in noise from my clutch going from the stock steel setup to an aluminum/carbon deal. Plus you drop a lot of rotating mass enabling the engine to rev a bit quicker. Part of the loss of noise could be the tighter tolerances of the new clutch. What I mean is the old clutch had worn out and banged up tangs on the plates, and dents in the basket, so the smacking of the two together probably had more force, and thus more noise. If you really want to quiet it down as much as possible go to a closed clutch cover. But if you just want a modest reduction in sound, go for the plates and basket.

I think I read somewhere that the combination of a steel basket w/ aluminum disks was a good set-up (V2 info maybe?) . I will do that when my clutch wears out (38K and counting...). Also Barnett now makes a sweet basket for our bikes too. Mine's loud as a mofo until I get going, then all I hear is induction, barely hear my DP (Remus) cans.
