The clutch problem sounds typical of Ducati dry clutches, it probably just needs a clean, it'll take you less than an hour to strip and remove the plates etc, even for the less mechanically minded it's a simple task, sounds like dust build up, getting an open/vented cover will help alleviate this to a degree as the dust will disperse all over your right foot rather than stay within the clutch assembly

Rockers are a problem, and it really does depend on the bike and how it's ridden, warmed up and how regularly it's used and serviced, the only way you can really tell if you might have rocker wear is to drain the oil and check the screening filter for chrome flakes, otherwise it's a big job with pulling the heads etc.

Personally just get riding it and enjoy
