Clutch spider spring failure

I believe there have been a couple of threads on this but it looks like this is the cause of my slipping clutch -





Does anyone have a spare I can borrow whilst Nelly trys to source me another new one?

How long should these things last anyway?

The clutch is as dry as a bone, presumably the Silverstone gravel and dust didn't help, and I am fully aware that the 'spiders feet' need regularly greasing.

One other point - the STM maintenance guide suggests clean, grease/overhaul every 2,000 KM, i.e. every 1,250 miles whereas I've done 4,000 miles on this clutch with 5,000 miles on the plates.

Anyone care to share their experiences/suggestions?
