Never hear of that before. Can you link to pictures or video of the different edges on the plates?

Is it only Barnett plates?

No difference in the edges on the SMR plates I use.

No mention of edges here:
hey its me, i didnt realize i linked a separate account lmao. But I never seen a video demonstrating that but there is an edge. I have another set i can try to make a video myself showing the edges. Its not very apparent unless you feel for it with your fingers along the edge. I run that exact clutch kit and it did the exact same thing until I flipped a few of the disks around. I had maybe half installed facing the right way and the other half weren't. I felt for the edge and had the round edges face eachother and now it shifts 1000x better. Ill see if i can PM you a video of me checking the edges. I never heard anyone mention it either until Mike mentioned it when i told him my problem. He said Ducati clutches are like that and not many people seem to know about that when installing these kits

Interesting indeed. The edges of the fiber or metal discs do not touch the adjoining plates, so what mechanism is at work that would make a difference? How was it explained to you as being important?
Sorry i just saw this. I was only told that it was a thing you had to do when installing the disks and that if the edges dont face they wont make good contact and cause jumping and hard shifting. I just took that a face value because the one who told me that is very knowledgeable and knows his shit. I did what he said and made a world of difference. No more jumping and shifts smooth as can be
