    Measure the plates? Like, for the amount of material that's on them?

    Springs are the likely culpret but a set of plates is only a little over $100, perhaps less so as long at you are there............................

    Slightly slipping clutch?

    Motorcycle clutches are weird.

    Haha, anyway, I'm not sure what my symptoms would describe (new plates, new springs, etc.), so let me tell you guys what's going on. My clutch is, for the most part, fine. If I'm leisurely going through the gears, each gear grabs like you'd expect it to. But, if I really get on it, it'll slip up past about 7K, and it'll slip a bit when the next gear is engaged, then catch, and pull hard up until around 7K, repeat.

    From what I've read through searching, this is most likely just my springs?
