Yes but they have done the research on what works.  Its not a TRS kit from what it says.  I've emailed them to see if they have the other two parts, spring and friction.  

The kit is made by S3 parts in Spain it has 1x clutch steel plate 1.6 mm thick  , 1x diaphragm spring and a adjustable spring support ring (duro) which means hard in english .   www.trialworld.es has them listed at 99 Euros as a TRRS CLUTCH IMPROVEMENT AND SMOOTHING KIT. S3 is a company that for decades has made all the motor cylinders for nearly every Trials bike made in recent history. Try e-mailing S3 parts and see what they say.

https://int.nonstopbikes.com/blog/trrs-clutch-upgrade-kit-2018-current-5c/   As it is a S3 kit then a trials shop some where in the world probably has 1 in stock .as of yet unsold but if you do not search you will not find it's that simple.

I will have a guess that the reason they do not have the video on the site is probably because people could then work out that they could make up a kit themselves from individual parts and do it cheaper using Casales' tips on how to fit the bits to achieve a soft clutch.

I got a quick reply from Hellteam and he explained that thier issue was getting bits out of GasGas ktm. 

I don't mind paying a bit of r&d if it saves me buying parts then getting slip, more parts more freight more spoiled rides. .

Hey thanks so much for that info. I'll go searching,  maybe AI can find areas of Web I don't for S3 kit. 

Funny I bought some different plates for my TXT250 when I was buying mc seal kit but never used them. All went with bike but bet 1.6mm plate was there knowing my luck. 

The GG clutch was just what I'm looking for in action.

@ F5Dave   Here are the measurements used by TRS to make the clutches suit three types of rider:

                                             Clutch pack thickness. Held in hand                         Spring thickness                  Adjustable clutch ring support         

           EXPERT                        9.85mm                                                                      1.5-1.7mm                             DURO/HARD

            INTER                           9.85mm                                                                       1.5mm                                   MEDIO/MEDIUM

            NOVICE                        10.00mm                                                                 unknown                                    DURO/HARD

               The unknown spring is probably going to be around 1.2mm thick .  If a GasGas Pro spring will fit then get a second hand clutch out of a 2007 on GasGas Pro and use that spring and see how that works along with a hard clutch support ring and a 1.6mm clutch steel plate or whatever you need to do to get the clutch pack thickness to 10.00mm.

@F5Dave  The parts in the TRIALWORLD.ES WEB SHOP SITE show that the spring for their soft clutch set up kit is PART #  05011MT100. This spring is the same one used as standard fitment in the 2018 125/250/280/300cc bikes if this is the case then making the Clutch pack 10.00mm thick and adding the "Hard" adjustable clutch  support ring is all that is needed to improve the clutch. Check it for your self in the relative info I put on from Trialworld.es and Non-Stop.
