Default clutch set up for drill team

I ride a stock 2007 RoadKing and its time to replace the clutch plates.
I am looking for a good set up to give me a little more friction zone than the stock clutches an recommendations will be welcomed.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your response have used Barnett on a previous bike. I don't remember any change in the friction zone but that bike had a lot larger zone to begin with. The zone I have right now is extremely small, some where in the range of about a 1/16 of clutch lever movement and the clutch goes from fully disengaged to fully engaged.

We tried a Screaming Eagle performance clutch in one of our '08 EG's and found it had virtuall no "gray zone" to work with for the cone courses. Our department won't spring for any other non-HD parts so we just run stock clutches. One word of advice thoug: we have found out, and this was confirmed by a HD factory rep as well as lot of Motor Officers at the Steel city Riding competition last year, put at LEAST 500 miles of stop and go riding on a new clutch before putting it through cone courses/skills type riding where you'll be in the friction (gray) zone a lot. A brnad new clutch will get smoked quick otherwise.
