See Technical notes. Clutch rebuild and adjustment.

All good sound advice in those notes. Also after re-assembly and adjustment, rotate the centre with the kickstarter and the clutch fully free. Ensure the outer plate turns true. I have found that even when all the springs are the same length changing their positions can result in a run-out of 2-3mm reduced to less than 1mm.
Can be a tedious affair but well worth it.
