My NC and ST1300 both do it....if you really pay attention you can feel it in seat........NORMAL
NC has a lot of mechanical noise at idle the clutch thing is just one of those noises. normal
ST has cam gear whine noise at idle...normal
PS ..........oil made no difference in either bike and the ST has 25,000 miles.
Yup.
My CX500Turbo clutch made a heck of a racket at idle and would be all quiet with clutch pulled in right from day one, and I never once worried or had any problems with the clutch on that beast. I had to put new stators in it every 25,000 km's like clockwork (x4) but never a clutch hiccup, lol.
