Hi guys, I had a look around the forum and found all sorts of comments on clutch noise probs; however, is anyone able to sum it up for me why my 07 SD has a rattley clutch or better still any advice in how to fix it? or do i need to bleed it etc.... Thanks heaps for any advice
Almost impossible to diagnose engine noises without hearing them first hand

Try taking the baffles out, that will quieten it down
some possible causes in this thread:

I'm not sure, but I thought that the recall they are talking about is to exchange clutch springs. You can contact your dealer and ask him if all recall actions have been performed.
First thing I would do is check if none of the bolts has some lose.
If you leave the bike on its sidestand you can remove the cover without oil coming out.

I have an '07 and the clutch does exactly the same as yours. It's normal, don't worry about it. If you pull the lever in it goes a bit quieter? I used to have dry clutch Ducati - that's a noisy clutch on idle, this one isn't!
really, normal? i have almost 30k on mine and the clutch isnt making any noise.
Well, it's not really a bad noise, I wouldn't think anything of it if people didn't keep asking this question.

It's like a slight jingling noise that you really only notice when you pull the clutch lever in and hear the difference. Can't hear it with my helmet on I don't think.
