    Had a false neutral around 3rd gear, knocked it back into gear with a bit of a clunk.

    Since then I have a rattle/screech when the bike is in gear and moving. Rattle is in all gears and I think at all speeds (only ridden a few miles since it went).

    Bike making full power and drives fine, other than the rattle...

    Best guesses?

    Thanks

    Took the clutch out and checked all fine. (re fitting the clutch cover is a twat, trick is to turn the engine over whilst refitting - if on own use the nut behind the timing window, if you have help put the bike into gear (6th) and have the assistant spin the rear wheel while you push and prod the cover back on.

    Noticed some notchy-ness when holding the clutch shaft and turning the rear wheel in gear. Best guess is a tooth or two has bitten the dust - there was no metal in the oil when drained.
