ok just read on the internet that the clutch plates have a certain position in the basket is this correct ?? if so any idea's on how they go?

not the plates, the boss and the basket have dots that need to be aligned when the plates are installed.

ok there is a special order to the plates...
1. take the tension off your clutch cable
2. remove your clutch and friction plates, lay them out in front of you, you will notice that one of the clutch plates inner circle is bigger than the rest, set this one aside along with the giant washer/spring thing
3. insert one clutch plate, then a friction plate, then the clutch plate with the bigger hole, then the spring, then a friction plate, then a clutch plate till all of them are in place...you should end up with a clutch plate being your last one installed
4. make sure while installing your friction plates that you start with the arrow/ear pointing up, then each consecutive friction plate should be installed approx 60 degrees clockwise from the last one
5. reinstall you clutch cover & springs
6. adjust the center screw for initial clutch
7. put your cover back on
8. adjust your clutch cable/lever so you have approx a nickels worth of slack between the lever and the lever holder...
9. ride and have fun!!

cheers regal i followed ur instructions and still nothing but just out of curiosity i took the push rod out, took it off the plate n pushed it in as far as i could and pulled the leaver and nothing.. so im obviously missing somthing between the clutch arm and push rod im guessing a ball bearing or somthing? my DTR (similar clutch) has a push rod then a ball bearing and then the push rod connecting to the basket.

yeah when my buddy rebuilt his bottom end he forgot to put the inner push rod in so for some reason i couldnt figure out why his clutch was so soft then i took the prssure plate off and slid a small long rod in there and it wouldnt want to stop so i went and got the push rod installed it and put that little ball bearing in then the pressure plat and woola. hope this helps ya out.
