Ok, I know you have seen ALOT of questions from me (:D:D) But I got a few more :P

I have a RM 85 and I'm wondering, Does anyone know how to tell if the clutch plates are worn out by just looking at them? Or do they need to be measured or something.

I don't know of any way other than measuring with a caliper.

Gotta get a manual. Thickness and flatness. Dial calipers for measuring thickness, a mirror or pane of glass and feeler gage for flatness, although I don't think being out of flatness is all that common. I could be wrong.

You measure thickness of the fibers and steels(or aluminum)
