Yeah I do apologise for the general vagueness of it all. its practically impossible to describe a noise, especially when you aren't quite sure yourself where its coming from or what it sounds like. Gah.
I put it down to having just got rid of 2 BMW's, first you hear an odd noise and then your bank account empties.
Well I gave up in the end and dropped by a mechanic on the way home from work last night. He reckons its transmission related, and wants to point it at the chain and sprockets due to them being the original ones - 10 years old and 14k miles. If thats all it is I'm happy and relieved. Really don't want anything serious wrong with this bike as its the nicest cleanest most reliable one I've had yet.
