Have to agree with DesmoDuke the metal plates are thick enough to manage some serious abuse and unless you've been amazingly brutal ought to last for a very long time. The oil bath plates last forever, I had a 750 that had 80K on the original clutch and it was fine. My 748R hasn't even done 8K so not sure how much the open slippers wear over a standard clutch but I'd guess more/faster but I'd assume the bulk of any wear would be on the friction plates.
And yes it does get hot when its being ummmmm ridden with spirit
