I was sitting at a stop yesterday letting the clutch in adn out to slowly move forward with traffic, and there was a clunk clunk noise every time i let the lever go. I was thinking that i may have a clutch that is not long for this world but it engages fine and it is not slipping. So what gives has anyone else had this happen?

Primary chain may be loose. That makes a clunking kind of noise when the clutch engages. Remove the inspection cover and check the play.
