Thanks jodytek for the detailed reply.
One member had purchased the clutch parts from a 2017 and tried to apply them to his 2014, but the clutch shaft was too long. Without seeing the parts, I initially thought a simple spacer was all that was needed, but realize the clutch release would not work because of the pressure plate location, but it is do-able with some machining/welding.
I tried reaching out to that member because he was local to me, but did not get a response, and he has not posted for a couple years.
Still, has promise though. The assist type clutch is a simple solution that appears to have NO drawbacks. Most of the Triumph Twins have them.
