well i brought the bike to a yamaha dealer today and had the shop manager listen to. he said it doesnt sound like anything out of the ordinarary. he says the r6 has a noisey clutch to begin with, so unlesss its starts to get worse he wouldnt worry about it, so i was happy.

Have you noticed that when you're cruising to a stop with the clutch pulled in and you've downshifted to first, there is a weird noise? Not sure if this is normal, but my last bike didn't make this sound. Kinda hard to explain the noise, It's kind of a mechanical engine/drive noise.

I have an 03 with about 7500k with the EXACT same problem. it sounds more like a rattling of something. If im sitting with the clutch pulled it, its fine. As soon as I shift into neutral and let the clutch out, it rattles. Not exactly sure what it is. I also have the "ticking" problem when my bike is running. 2 seperate noises.
