848 owners clutch question ?

  1. I had my first run out of the year on my 848 on Saturday and when I got home I done my usual and rode the bike straight into the garage. The only difference was that this time I removed my helmet while I was waiting for the garage door to open, I usually just leave my helmet on until I put the bike on the stand. The clutch seemed to be really noisy for a wet clutch bike, something I have never noticed before in the two years that I have owned it. I did not know if it always sounded like this when it was hot after a ride and I just have never noticed because of having my ear plugs and helmet on or if it is actually louder than it should be !! It sounds like a knocking a bit like a dry clutch and when I pull the clutch lever in it goes quiet, release it and the 'knocking' starts again. Is everyone's 848 like this and is it just something that I haven't noticed previously or is it just me looking for something when it is not faulty ???
