Dry Plate Ritual

I've done this at least 75-100 times.  Cleaned out my dry clutch basket on my K or CH Sporty.  I like the Raybestos dry plates best.  They hook, don't slip, the clutch works easy . . . but, don't get them wet.  This is becoming a lost ritual.  Like boiling corks.  Payne, Riley, Smith, Tibben, Rayborn . .  they would know what I'm talkin' about on this.  I tried the wet/dry plates.  They just don't work right - so, I'm going back to dry . . . and to do this again someday.
