I dont know if it helps, but I had something similar happen to my bike - I had my mechanic replace the clutch and the clutch never felt right and the bike was making a loud tapping noise. I called the mechanic, he blamed the clutch on being non OEM, suggested replacing Baron springs with OEM, so I brought it back and he did - marginal improvement i clutch performance and the tapping continued.
I decided to do the valve adjustment, they were within spec when I checked, but I got the perfect. The tapping still continued.
So I decided to take a look at the clutch myself, turns out he put in the gear behind the clutch backwards, and the pin fell out, and the oil pump wasn't being engaged. I only put about 200 miles on the bike after he did the shoddy work, and when I drained the oil it was jet black, completely burnt. Ever since the bike keeps burning oil.
Check out the video I sent him when I discovered his screw up.
