Greg and Chris, Thank you for all your guidence and the details about upgrading the clutch. I have completed the upgrade this week. I used a clutch assembly from a 2008 Ex250. The assembly came with the rod so I used it. Although I have ordered oem plates and the springs the plates and the springs on the assembly that I received turned out to be almost brand new. The plates still had 95% of material and the springs were well in spec. So I decided to use them and kept the brand new parts for later.

Clutch worked right out of the box with no issues. The knocking has completely disappeared. Even on very low - 1000rpm its not existent.

I tested it on a driveway as the bike is not yet plated. I will do more thorough testing in Sping. It did pull really well, however. And I also felt the friction zone became wider. Probably due to newer friction plates.

Thanks again guys.
