Default noise from tranny

Heres what happened. I was riding the other day when i pulled in the clutch
lever the bike would still pull. I adjusted it. Now when i pull in the clutch I
hear a noise coming from the tranny. It sounds like CLACK when the clutch lever is pulled in. Any ideas?

OK so it could be the ***** that ride on the ramp have come loose. Pull the primary cover and have a look. Have you done this before? Do you have a manual? If not i can provide some helpful hints based on my own experience before you begin.
