Dare I say c-l-u-t-c-h

I know....another clutch thread but I need help. So I picked up an 01 FI from an OO with 25k. He says the clutch began to slip and he took it to a Kaw dealer. The receipt showed a MS spring and plates were installed. When I test rode it, I noticed it disengaged very late but no slipping. Got home and rode 20 or so miles and noticed it starting to slip at roll on. Got home and shut it off, restarted a few min later to get into garage and it wouldn't budge. After cool down it was fine until it heated up again. It started slipping again today on the way home from work.

I'm thinking, either the shop didn't do the work that they claimed, although the clutch is stronger than that on my 03, oil is not correct or is in need of changing, plates are dirty, etc.

I'm thinking of getting a MS spring and Judges and doing it myself.

Any suggestions are appreciated. Oh yeah....why does it disengage so late?
