doesn't the vk use a cable clutch ?

if you rest your foot on the clutch enough till it just takes up does it make a noise then .... has it been making the noise since it was installed or just recently started to make the noise ?

rubbing sound is a bit vague.. but could be anything from pedal being too dry, to loose clutch plates. Try to locate where the sound is coming from, inside/outside and go from there.

The old Commos all had a cable driven clutch, not a hydraulic one. When did the hydraulic clutches come in? VN Commos?
