Clutch Handle/lever Clicking

Can you remove the cable from the lever end and then try to "operate" it quickly using pliers?
You need to see where the problem actually is.
Sounds like a strand of wire getting caught on the lever to me but obviously , just a guess.

 

Might be from the engine end of the cable. The nipple on the cable end goes into a sorta hook thing that pulls on a lever. Perhaps that area needs cleaning and greasing.

 

My tiger 900 does the same
and I think it is only on down shifts
with the quick shifter I do not operate the clutch quickly often enough to consider it a problem, so I have not spent time trying to figure it out

 

My Tiger 850 does it when I upshift/downshift between 1st & 2...the rest not so much.
