First, topic moved to the appropriate sub-forum.

Second, there are so many reasons for the clutch to slip on a 25yo bike it's not funny. First things first - is it adjusted properly at the sprocket cover? If that doesn't solve it, you're into hard parts. Get out the manual, pull the clutch cover, and start inspecting for wear and damage.

Aftermarket parts are fine, but for a stock bike OEM parts are probably your best value. Heavy springs are not needed, and just make you tired and sore.

OK, and this is meant politely, but if you want us to help we need to clearly understand the problem. This means that you need to clearly explain it to us in full sentences and punctuation. Even if you're typing from a phone, please take the time. We are here to help each other but if I have to read the question multiple times to try and figure out what you want to say, I'm moving on.

The carbs will only have a fuel hose to the middle. The two you are talking about don't really matter if they are there or not. You most likely have a clog somewhere in your carbs. They most likely need to be synced. It's a 25 year old bike and probably needs the carbs cleaned anyway and new seals. Your plugs could be fouled, check them. Your valves could be off. They should be checked too.

If you are in need of a clutch I have multiple OEM friction plates and steels.
