For those that replied on the clutch noise - thanks. You are correct in that it appears to be the noise from the gear reduction. Raising the idle slightly did cause the clatter to subside slightly. I'll be back out next Tuesday or Wednesday for another 800 - 1000 mile ride and will post results. When in for its oil change the secondary was wound tighter (forgot to ask what twist) and a bit of tweaking to the primary to get revs slightly higher for better top end. They also played with the shims. Before you jump on it - yes the dealer did the oil change. I simply don't have the time anymore for trivial matters such as that.
