Clutch

Went to the Dragon Rally this weekend and the clutch is now slipping under hard acceleration in top gear. There is freeplay in the clutch cable and the cable itself is free to move. The bike is '09 and only 23000 miles. I need to check that the mechanic is using 'good' oil for the changes, if not he's in trouble!
Has anyone got experience of changing the clutch plates and which manufacturer did you use. Had a look at prices and might as well change the steel plates as well.
Will it be worth renewing the springs with the heavy duty ones?
I do have a manual and will do the job myself as I'm not trusting the garage now. Before I set off I checked the oil level, it was low and the chain was bar tight despite me telling him to make sure it was 'loose'. Can nobody be trusted these days?
Anyhow any input from you guys as to the plates would be helpful as I will be doing a lot of miles this year.

Cheers Steve
