I'm sure this has been asked before (although I cannot find it in a site search).
The Yamaha parts diagram for the CT2/CT3 clutch shows that the 1st plate installed is a steel plate (#5 in the diagram) and the last plate installed is a fiber plate (#7 in the diagram). If one were to install them this way, the narrow rim of the pressure plate (#8 in the diagram) would be digging a groove into the middle of last fiber plate installed. It seems counter intuitive to install it this way. It would make more sense to have the 1st plate installed be a fiber plate that would come in full contact with the clutch boss (#4 in the diagram) and the last plate installed be a steel plate which would come in partial contact with the rim of the pressure plate. Is it just me or is the diagram backwards?

The diagram is wrong.

I thought a much. I'll copy Mark's diagram and put a copy in my manual (as I'm sure to forget this).

Thanks JayB!

You're onto it. Also leave those rubber or plastic rings out that sit under each fiber--i do--if still there. Looks like No6 in the pic.
