Is my clutch done?

My first clutch replacement was at 25,000 miles. The second lasted 40,000 miles. I certainly don't fit the "typical Sporty Rider" cHarley describes. I agree with him, it's just doesn't apply to me. I do plenty of twisty riding, in my part of the world just a short ride through the country is going to involve twisties. I also sometimes take the Sporty on a 400 - 600 superslab ride.
And then there are my Patriot Guard Rider activities. Those are very abusive on the clutch.

Is this one of those mods that should be done as a preventive measure... I am one of those riders that uses the bike on short rides, meaning, lots of traffic stop-and-go.
Bike is new, less than 1K miles, just want to be ready for it. And, hopefully without opening a can of worms, what would be the recommended clutch brand to go with? HD SE? Something else?

All you need is 1 friction disc & 1 steel plate.

Does anyone have the part numbers for these items??

I think 2 steels and 1 friction as I recall? I figure the spring plate is steel on both sides, so you need a friction in between the new steels. I'm sure someone who has done this knows exactly. Also, something about the overall height of the clutch pack matters too.

If your repairing the clutch at <=25,000 miles, I would just do the 3 plates. If your out at 50,000 miles, I would probably replace all of the plates in the pack.
