Question about Noise while releasing clutch

[imcool]

I went for a short 50mi ride and all is well. The clutch feels different, better. Whenever I pulled the lever even with the bike off before I could hear some mechanical action going on with the drum and I could definitely hear it with the bike running in neutral. Now when I pull the lever it's so quiet and smooth. I thoroughly bled the thing using up 2/3s of a bottle of dot4 and my fluid never looked so clean. All this was done with 1477mi on he odometer. The video I posted with the loose plate might not mean anything as I had already pulled the release plate off to investigate and after that there is no way to get the innermost plates to seat properly without pulling everything out.
For those who are into measurbating I'll get around to checking the flatness/thickness of the old plates eventually but I need to nerd out on my PC for a while.

so no more judder/jitter noise while releasing clutch? what fixed it, like new plates? sorry if I lost the track of your posts, cant find it what was replaced and bought from triumph

It first started acting up after 600 mi and then about 600mi after both times the dealer messed with it. I replaced all the clutch internals except the baskets and will know more down the road. If it keeps behaving I'll never know.
All the information we have so far is back in this thread.
I do have some random theories and will try to articulate those later this weekend.

Being on my phone at work I will say this though. If the 3 10Nm bolts holding the release plate and spring tension are loosened the only way to get things back right is by taking everything apart and reassembling. When doing that there needs to be just enough tension to prevent the innermost plates from dislodging and still have enough movement to be able to line up the plates with the outer basket and spline. This is tricky and the reason the manual says to do this with the outer basket removed to line things up initially. But that doesn't line up the spline so during final assembly there still needs to be enough movement available while the release plate bolts provide just enough tension.
The applicable pages in the manual have very good explanations and drawings.
