Using the extra plate and friction clutch kit did you have to leave off the concave spacer that is with the stock clutch pack.
i replaced my clutch with the BDL extra plate kit BTXP-14 and it seems to thick, I did reuse the concave spacer that is stock.
The BDL kit came with no instructions and I went with what the manual said.
The bike is a 06 RK, 88" 5 speed.

I just put the Barnett spring conversion w/ there clutch plate set in my 05 flht. last weekend. Not many miles on it, can tell you went w/ the lightest springs can deffinatly feel the difference. Clutch feels that is better grip or performance. Good luck hope you enjoy I feel confident I made a good choice.

I am running the Barnett Co Spring conversion with Green Springs which are I think 82lbs per spring at 1" and just orders the Alto Carbonite Clutch....little known fact. The Alto clutch has a lifetime warranty thru the manufacturer and it is USA made. The company is based in Atmore Al. Alto makes clutches and fibers to most anything I have Alto Red Eagles I. My C4 race trans of my Mustang and if those hold 900 flywheel up the. They are good enough for 100hp/110 lbs tq!!!

I don't feel this build requires a high performance clutch.
I've ordered the Alto Carbonite Hi-Performance Powerpak Kit #095750NC and the Barnett Spring conversion kit #511-30-10004. This should get me in the area of the SE clutch hub kit #37976-08A, which is good up to 160ft-lbs per the HD website.
The Alto Carbonite Kit has 10 fictions and 9 steels, so there is some added surface there about 10%.
In reference, the SE Performance Clutch Friction Disc Kit 37980-10, has 9 frictions, 8 steels, a SE heavy spring and is also an OEM replaceable kit.
