IMO: if you are getting a squeak, it might just be the start of metal to
metal. It COULD be a glazing issue as well, but personally, "I" never get
THAT lucky.
If you can actually get a peak in there, look for any scoring as you might
expect from a worn down brake disc pad. Any signs like that basically say
the clutch is toast.
BTW: a new flywheel is pricey. I just paid 370 (almost 200 off list) for a
360 flywheel to go in between the old R/T motor and my NV3500.
