I read the Teach tips on Clutch blue printing, What does that do to help the clutch? Just wondering how much it helps and way?

Re: Clutch Fine tuning
"Blue Printing" the clutch greatly improves the smoothness of clutch engagement. You may have (or may not have) experienced the situation where - as you let the clutch lever out smoothly and slowly . . . nothing happens, and nothing happens, and nothing happens . . . and then suddenly - it all happens. The clutch suddenly engages and either it kills the engine . . . or you are going. A "blue printed" clutch engages smoothly.
