Is there a way to get the clutch wear reading on a F1 360 yourself?

    Is there a way to get the clutch wear reading on a F1 360 yourself? Or do you have to take it to a shop? This would be for the purpose of purchasing a 360, not one that I currently own. And no, I'm not going to take the clutch apart myself and measure anything.

    I assume you will be buying a PPI, which the shop will have the mega-expensive computer that can measure clutch wear.

    The readings from the computer can be easily altered so they are directional not absolute. There is an access plate on the bottom and I am told you can see the clutch plate for a visual inspection. So the answer is yes you can check it but, you will probably want to go with the feel when you drive it and the info you get from a PPI.

    The dust grooves in the clutch plate are visible through the inspection port. The size of these grooves compared to a new plate can give a visual indication of wear.
