There is also clutch adjustment for the push rod that runs to the clutch behind rubber gromet on the front sprocket cover (not to sure on correct adjustment but on mine backed off the screw an thightend up untill just felt pressure) also on mine clutch basket had notches worn into it and the plates couldnt slide correctly . sorted that with a big file.

Ahh thanks for the extra advice mate! i've tried adjusting the one which goes into the sprocket cover aswell as the one by the lever to no avail again! i think i'll call it a day and just get new clutch plates, there reasonably cheap so i might aswell and that should narrow it down further too!
