Hey guys I'm riding a 91 far 1000. just got it running and when i start it up it makes a sound like two pieces of metal clashing together. the sound sounds like it is coming from the starting gear area. when i put the bike in higher revs it sounds like a rally bad rod knock, any ideas to what would be making the noise. also i cannot disengage the clutch to shift into first. the slave cylinder is depressing all the way to the back plate so it can not go any farther.
