Remove the six allen head screws , remove alloy pressure (facia) plate.

Alloy plate has a triangle moulded into it at one on the holes , this lines up with the slotted hole on the clutch body post which the spring screws thread into.

The DP pressure plate has a dot at the hole which corresponds to the slotted hole , this makes sure that the splines on the rear of the pressure plate line up with the clutch body.

You have to remove the operating rod from the original plate and fit it to the new DP plate , use a soft drift to knock it out , be careful not to damage the brearing.

When refitting the springs , screws and caps , tighten them up diagonally to ensure equal pressure.

I find that covering the open clutch cover with a polly bag when washing the bike stops most of the water getting in and the springs don't go rusty , if they do , remove and give them a wipe over with WD40 and this will remove the surface rust and stop them rusting again as quickly , don't be tempted to spray WD40 on the springs without removing them first as that would not be very good for the clutch plates
