Clutch isn't too difficult to replace.
I did mine before TrikeFest last year.
I'll yank the clucth replacement section of the manual for you and attch it here in a few.
If you do not have air tools, you can put the trike in 6th gear and hold the rear brake on to break the nut loose from the shaft. (you'll have to put the pedal back on (temporarily) after you remove it to get the side cover off).
Give me a few minutes to grab the clutch pages...

you need to unstake the loc washer with a drill then use an impact to get the clutch hub nut off...
if you have AIM, aim me at m20deepa20 and ill send you the whole manual

You may need a 1/2" impact to get the nut loose that holds the clutch parts together.

I used Vesrah fibers and steels and new Honda springs. I went with the Honda springs because I didn't want the super stiff pull of a "performance" clutch kit.
And my engine is stock so I didn't need super clamping power.
Did you download the manual ok?

I can't remember exactly...have you downloaded the parts manual yet?
http://www.350xriders.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=performance_board;action=display;num =1101861689
Grab it from there and find the part number you need and enter them at www.servicehonda.com or www.ronnies.com or just about any other honda parts dealer that has an online catalog.
