Weird clutch noise??

Where from?
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

If it only happens when the engine's warm, it sounds like something is expanding and causing the clutch to drag a little. What oil's in the gearbox?

Re: Weird clutch noise??
Its in the clutch basket area and im running 10w40 Suzuki oil. Im most likely going to empty the oil out and take the clutch cover off and inspect.
