Gen I Clutch is Too Grabby. Is Brocks the Only Fix?

[Road Weazel]

I've got a '99 and I find the clutch far too 'grabby' to get a decent launch. I've already installed a welded clutch hub and the '05 anti-judder spring, washer and inner drive plate.
Do I have another issue or is the Brock's Cushion set up the only fix?
If I have to spend the cash I will, but thought I'd ask first.
Thanx,
Weazel

The brocks cushion shld smooth it out.

If the clutches seem dry from lack of oil, that would cause some grabbiness.

Thanx, guys. I ordered the Brock's Cushion Kit this morning.
I upgraded to the welded hub and '05 clutch assembly, and it seemed better for a few launches and then the sucky, grabby demon came back.
I'm not sure what I could do about getting more oil on the plates. I was running Motul 300 synthetic 10w40 and will be changing to Amsoil 10w40 this week (work gave me a free gallon).
Thanx again.

While the bikes running with you on it lean it to the right as gas as you can without dropping it. While leaning it while running hold the clutch handle in for several seconds. Do it every time you make a pass. It saturates the clutches pretty good.

Thanx for the tip! It's very much appreciated!

I've read about the hayabusa clutch being 'grabby' because of slightly bent/ warped friction plates ( the metal plates between the clutch fiber plates).. you cam set them down on a piece of glass to see which ones are warped. Also the warped plates might show some discoloration.
