I doubt it will be a problem with your plates... hopefully it is nothing too serious!

Things dont appear to bad friction discs are
fine the others are a little sad as in pitted and
slightly blue. Basket looks fine its the centre
drum that has clear groves where the discs
move up and down on , manual says you can
file them back smooth or should i buy new to
suit all new discs i have and should i soak the
discs overnight before fitting.

I can't imagine filing is a great idea
Specially in the rattle stakes?

Mine looked just like that on my 918 engine. I filled mine and managed to get them real smooth. Fitted new OEM plates, discs and springs and found it
works great
Same things just happened on my Honda MX bike...I have come to the conclusion that Honda's baskets are made from baked bean metal!! The Baskets
cost a few hundred and pressure plates about a nifty if you've started getting a bad lip on it
Off my CRF after just 35 hours racing

Ok so want a laugh...
Whilst the clutch was out eyes wander and
thought i will change the fuel filter in the
regulator no probs but put it next to the
clutch cover... now when i put the clutch
all back in, cover on job done so i thought
TILL i put the fuel filter back in only to find
the little spring that pushes the filter up
missing...think think OH NO surely not i only
put it behind the clutch cover were i thought
it had come from so after retrieving it
putting it all back together i have only
sheared off one of the 5 spring bolts so
came in having had enough.. There must be
a moral to the story but dammed if i can
think of it....

basket etc..
