well i got all the plates out and managed to clean them up without any major mishaps and it seems to have made quite a bit of difference. it's still slipping a little bit when i test it by doing a high gear "roll-on", but in the lower gears it seems reasonably ok.
however, when i had the plates out, it was clear that the friction plates are not much longer for this world - they're all very low and one was almost down to the metal.
is replacing the plates something i can do myself - ie: is it just a case of opening the packet and slotting the plates in in the correct order, or is there more to it than that? is there any set-up required due to the change in thickness of the new plates compared to the old ones?
if it's something i can do myself, i will do.... where is the best place to buy plates and are there any upgrades (i've read that aluminium "steels" were a good upgrade)?
thanks as always
