I'm after a clutch friction plate..the one with the three pins..not certain if I have to replace the other friction plate as well.
I'm desperate to get my bike back on the road.
All suggestions will be appreciated.
I reside in melbourne australia.
Cheers

From what you say about the 3 pins you want the steel pressure plate not what is commonly referred to as the friction plate.
Motobins have both steel plates and I would recommend getting new items as the older ones are often dished and only touch at the outer edge of the friction plate and slip.
I have 5 sets of steels here but all are dished and I had to machine a pressure plate to get a good one last time I needed one. As an economic proposition machining an old one is not worthwhile.
