check to see if its the basket cush springs start it let it idle it should rattle pull the clutch in if the rattle goes away then its the basskes cush springs that are worn and not a replaceable item so either a new basket  mega bucks live with it , take a chance on a second hand one or try a repair on it yourself youtube has videos of other bikes but its the same principal

If it gets quieter when you pull the clutch in nothing serious to worry about.  They all do that at the miles mount up.
