Is it used regularly? If not it could be the clutch plates sticking together, then releasing suddenly causing the 'lurch'.

Or, the plates could be worn and need replaced?

A big part of this problem is the springs being done, change plates and springs together preferably piaggio genuine parts.
Otherwise buy complete new clutch unit plug and play.
good luck
