The noise goes away when you pull the clutch because you are unloading the chain.
This is now becoming favourite, although i don't get why?
I quickly gave all the brake pad pins a clean up after work yesterday and as i had gloves on i physically felt and examined the whole chain and there were no stiff links at all and as i said earlier it appeared to be in really good nick.
So why would it suddenly start making a noise? I expect it when they're new but i've never had one make a noise before without having a stiff link?
I've now just found this article as well which does describe the same thing quite accurately.
