Randy just Pm'ed me re this thread...
It does appear you have more broken parts than what blew up.
As noisy as it is, your not able to narrow down where the clicking is coming from or noticed (when the engine was apart) , no aluminum wear marks on the block?
Just as a side note, something to look for. On my old KLR 250, it was notorious for the left side main crank, roller (pretty large) to fail every 32,000 miles. The first time it went, the cage, that held the actual bearings apart was approx 1/3 GONE.. it made a god aweful noise.
With that said, metal parts of the clutch (and if something blew up previously and left debris) got into any of those bearings, it would also make some serious noise (like yours).
When you have the pan off (or side covers), pay super close attention to all the brearings and literally take a screwdriver and lean some on the shafts checking for ANY PLAY.
A bad gear, I would think, would whine more than your click/tick sound.
In either case, with ALL the debris that got into the engine, to keep from doing this again, I'd probably pull the engine apart and make sure ALL the crap/metal, clutch material is out of there. It doesn't take much to clog up an oil passage and fry a major bearing (which it could be) or engine..
Just as a side note, about 1.5 years ago, my local shop had an R6 in there with a blown up clutch plate(1/4 mile or drag racing). The parts got scattered thru out the engine and literally locked up the engine with debris stuck in-between gears. The shop wanted to do a full tear down, the owner couldn't afford it, they ended up pulling the motor, flip it upside down and manually pulling clutch parts from the engine...
If you could take a look at the video, any input is appreciated. I'm almost positive I found the problem, but many eye are better than two.
