got 1300mi on the bike and when I return from a ride and put it in "N" and let out the cluch there is a "Shudder" I don't know how else to describe it.If I pull the cluch in it stops and won't always do it again unless i "Pop" the cluch.Only in nutural and only when warm,,,so far.

I think it's one of those 'they all do that' things.
Mines done it a few times over the years...our clutches don't like to be slipped.

What DJ said, these bikes have dry clutches and behave/ feel
different than the more common wet clutches.
Suzuki T500- learned on
Vmax- hang on
Klr650- muddy on
Softail- laid on
R1150R- moved on

Hey Duckman...only kidding.
I was just like you a few years ago..now I can post pics and all.
If your bike is still under warranty...yes take it in and see what they say...there should be no knocking sound.
