Sounds like you have hit all the bases. Only other thing I can think of is did you open the bleeder valve when you pushed the push rod back into the slave cylinder?
Did you get anything figured out yet?If you remove the outer push rod and install the Barnett kit just for reference, it will tightly contact the fiber plates. The 1/8" dimensional discrepancy I mentioned earlier from stock is limiting the full travel of the pressure plate to bottom out on the clutch plates. Even when the push rod is bottomed out in it's travel. Something is definitely incompatible here.
Any idea why MNrider can't get his to work?Ive been one of the very first "test" folks to use the Barnett from day one ! It is a great product and is so much stronger than stock. There is no doubt in my mind that it has saved my clutch getting stuck in all the deep silt and sand in Utah. For the folks that know, you get off the road, break the crust and then it sinks to the skid plate.
I give the Barnett pressure plate FIVE stars !
We also continue to answer questions about them. While anyone is in there working, don't forget to change out the push rod / bearing / O-ring. Those parts are about $20 and a wear part. Makes a big difference with clutch performance ! ! !

Gen 1 with 5k miles. Purchased the 14' clutch basket and the Barnett spring conversion. After installing with the stock plates, I tested the clutch engagement with the bike running. I could overpower the clutch and stop the bike in gear with my feet on the ground. I disassembled the entire clutch for inspection to insure nothing was missing. With the clutch boss bottomed out on the Barnett pressure plate I could slightly move the first clutch disc (loose). All the discs and steel plates are installed, none are missing. So my question is. Is it possible the Barnett plate was machined incorrectly to allow more Gap thus causing the clutch to slip? Or is something else going on? I'll install the stock spring setup tomorrow and see if the bike functions properly with that.
Is that track in Belle Fourche?they say xr400's don't belong on mx tracks (and they dont) but I tried it anyway.
I don't know the weight. Unless you are having someone in the US buy the parts for you and ship to you themselves, most of the parts vendors will calculate shipping before you go to billing. I just did it for an address in Bangkok and it was about $90 USD for the shipping on the clutch driven gear and the nut. That was from www.partshark.comHi All,
How much the weight of 14' clutch basket ?
I consider about shipping cost to Thailand.
Thanks.
Thank you......I don't know the weight.

Good information for me.....ThanksI don't know what my 14 basket weighs because it's in the engine, but the 13 basket I removed weighs 5 pounds. I think they would be close to the same weight.
