Barnett springs but would while changing it like to maybe put a better one in, anyone got any ideas for me what to buy and from where, or maybe
someone happes to have one sitting around they want to sell.

Everyone and myself included will tell you OEM frictions and steels. Some people find other manufacturers cluches work okay but others have some real
problems.

Not sure about where the best price is, but a place that has a good website with some very useful parts diagrams is Cornwall Kawasaki

What about the Kawasaki ZX9R (ZX 900 E1/E2) 00-01 Clutch Kit Complete - EBC SRK Series? Anyone used this ?

When I had my zx9 striker i fitted a ebc Kevlar h duty clutch kit with uprated springs never had a problem with it bought from a company in motor
cycle news this was about 12 years ago though.

I'd steer well clear of EBC clutches, the OEM parts are invariably far superior. EBC clutches frequently cause problems in bikes, let alone
BECs.

ZX9R clutches are tough things, I stripped my "C" clutch and found all the plates blue, I put it back together and ordered a new standard
set.
Never got round to fitting them, and did over 2000 miles without the clutch slipping

Yup, they seem very strong. Mine were blue like that, I just added Brocks performance R1 springs and run 225bhp and 124ft/lbs of torque with no
slipping.
