Think my engine is going to die :(

That certainly is not normal and does not sound good.
For starters, put bike on the side stand, remove the clutch cover and have a good look inside.
Last rattle I heard similar to that was after a fellow replaced the clutch and stripped one of the clutch bolts.
I certainly would not be driving it again until I find the problem.

Was the bike ever dropped?

Bikes not been dropped that i know of and no signs of any damage from being dropped, all engine castings and fairings in good condition, crash bars look fine.


not sure how i could strip a clutch bolt whilst riding. and it only happens when warm then hot.
