    Are you able to shift through all the gears if you rock it back and forth with the motor off? It sounds like it could be the clutch. When mine went out it was working fine then over about 25 minutes, it was slipping so bad I couldn't move. I really had to wind it up to get a crawl going.

    As for your ticking, mine does that too. If I pull in the clutch it seems to go away.

    Check the basket for groves. I had a KX250 (I bought not running) that was worn so bad that the plates would slide back in place.

    Call me paranoid but the last time I had my clutch apart I replaced the bolts that hold the pressure plate and springs on. I'd rather spend a couple bucks on new bolts than try to extract a broken one from the inner basket...

    sounds like your on the right track with friction plates, the metal plates and springs though.

    my bolts look like theyve never been touched.......im pretty sure this is the first time the crank case has been opened.....only 2 previous owners and only have had the head replaced and im pretty sure only 1 top end rebuild before i owned it....the last owner only rode it about twice a year in the desert soim pretty sure its the stock clutch im replacing......im gonna go with the stock bolts unless i get the heavy duty clutch kit
