It's a kawasaki, they do!

Seriously though it could be the cush drive in the rear hub causing chain lash, it could be just chain lash full stop. Could be an insufficiently lubed or excessivly tight chain causing knock around the front sprocket, esepcially noticable when pulling away?

Try providing a bit more info as "a clunking noise" is a bit vague. And also try posting in the Workshop.

Thumbs Up
