groaning clutch - time to replace?? longish

I have a '98 NG 900 SE with 107,000 miles. For about 30,000 miles I've had an intermittent squeak/groan when I release the clutch in first gear. Now the noise is getting louder and I can "feel" it through the clutch pedal - and I notice it one in a while as I let the clutch out in higher gears.
I thought it might be the throw-out bearing - but I'd have expected to hear noise at idle.
How will I know if it is the throw-out bearing? If is the throw-out bearing - should I do the whole clutch at the same time of will I save significantly if I just have the bearing done?
I'm usually light on clutches - the clutch in my classic 900 gave out after 278,000 miles - and that was the master cylinder - not the clutch plates.
