This noise isn't within the boundaries of acceptable. It's a grating sticking intermittent metallic grinding.
Really loud shifting to first.
Dissipates slightly when the bike is hot. Despite this, the interior of the basket isn't destroyed and neither are the clutch plates. They're just catching evenly all around the interior.

He really had the springs torqued down. I was just reading about a max of 7nm torque on those. Barely hand tight..

You can’t torque the springs themselves down really.
You merely screw the bolts in till they bottom out, then gently nip them up.
