After getting stuck for about twenty minutes in stop-and-go traffic a couple of days ago with my Uly, I noticed my gearbox or clutch gives me a noise when I pull the clutch in (at least) first gear. I'd appreciate any plausible thoughts of what could be wrong and what I should do about it.

I'm having kind of the same issue with my clutch. I get a rattling sound when I pull in the clutch to pull up the slack. No sound when it's fully engaged or completely disengaged. My Buell Mechanic said it might be the bearing just on the other side of the clutch release assembly. Easy fix.

Might be the bearing or it more likely could be that your primary chain tension is too loose and needs adjusted.
