What parts are typically replaced during a clutch change on the K27 model?

Is it just the friction plate that needs changing, or do the pressure plate and clutch cover also need changing?

The realoem parts schematic is here:

Thanks in advance,

when I had my clutch replaced because of the dreaded rear main oil seal leak, they replaced a couple of other things. you have to tear the bike in half, so replacing things that "could go" bad or are known to go bad sooner or later is a precautionary thing, but one I would consider wise. a slave cylinder, and a few parts. no one wants to go in there twice, that's for sure. look over that rear main seal carefully, they are known to go bad.

I believe there are quality aftermarket kits available too, at a better price than the BMW parts.

I changed only the friction plate, when the gearbox was off because of a sealing ring. Altough it was like new at 96 000 km. The base plate and cover were also like new. With its Trial like short 1st gear I hardly let the clutch slip but almost let it snap at bit higher idle revs. You might make a bargain if you google for "LUCAS TRW MCC609", which is the part.
