Matthew,

Sorry to hear that. A lot of older bikes need the previous owner's "mistakes" fixed. The good news is that once you sort it properly it usually stays fixed.

Later clutches from any dry clutch model up to the 998 will fit. The 999 clutch may also fit but I've not seen one so I don't know.

The clutch plate order has changed over the years. There is at least one dished plate, later there were sometimes two. They have a punch mark on one of the teeth. You can stack the plates in any of the orders Ducati have used, the important thing is the total thickness of the plate stack. I imagine that Ducati think the newer order works better.

Next failure? Clutch slave cylinder seal, regulator/rectifier or rear brake master cylinder seizing up.

All the best,
Mike
