Noisy clutch basket

[Alan215]

Hello like I said I have had the bike 3 days this may have been discussed to death but as I am new to the forum don’t know yet how to navigate it anyway when in neutral clutch out there is a rattle and noisy not load but there when clutch in nothing I’ve looked on the net and most people say it’s normal but some say not spoke to a lad on the ferry and his does not do it his year younger and more miles as the bike is under warranty the man said he will fix it if it’s a problem and I can find out what it is
So question is what is causing it can it b fixed and is it a problem
Thanks in advance

When you do this is the bike on the centre stand with the rear wheel free turning or is it on the side stand with the rear wheel on the ground?

No Center stand this is with me sitting on it with it in neutral does it when cold or warm

I have a "noise" in neutral with the clutch out. Pull the clutch in and it goes. Mine's been like that for 9.5 years & 91,000km

When the clutch is out (engaged) it is turning the gearbox shafts.
That is the likely source of the noise. If your oil is good and at the proper level  I wouldn't be too concerned. There are a lot of parts moving around in that gearbox. What's the year and mileage? New or used?

 Hello it is a used model 2014 it has 7100 miles on it looks really well looked after it’s confusing like I said some people say it’s normal but other people say there’s does not make a noise at all so as it’s under warranty and if it can be put right why not when it’s free

I have a 1019 XCA and there is a rattle when idling with the clutch engaged in neutral. However, in 9 months of ownership I hadn't noticed it until someone on another thread said it put them off owning one.
It is so faint that I have to concentrate to pick it from the general sound of the running engine.

Bike is completely standard, no fruity silencers etc and I would describe it as sweet, smooth and reserved when sat idling.

Maybe some are noisier than others ?

Record a short clip on you tube and post a link, others could do the same and you might get a sense of whether yours is excessive.

Do you know when the oil was last changed and what grade oil?

It's probably worth checking the balance of the throttle bodies at idle.  If these are out of balance it will not idle smoothly and any backlash in the primary drive, clutch and gearbox shafts will make itself known.
