    It does it when it's hot or cold (every up-shift in every gear) but I will try the synthetic oil. I will have to figure out how to bleed the clutch......didn't know you could do that?

    I was thinking the same thing, I took the side cover off and had a peek at the sprocket/chain and it was not worn at all, I thought maybe a tooth might be missing or the teeth wornout and the chain was skipping but all was good and tight. The sound is not comming from the rear of the bike (rear hub) , it's comming from right below me when on the bike and riding.

    ya try the synthetic and see what happens and blled the master and slave cyclinder for the oil and i am pretty sure you can bleed the clutch out change all fluids you can to synthetic.

    At first I thought the chain as-well, I tightened it.....loosened it.....oiled it.......ect, and there was no change in the sound that was coming from the trany area so I ruled it out. I would be shocked if the chain was the issue but thanks for the thought.
