2010 XT660Z Rattle/Grinding noise at 5k RPM

Hi all.

My Tenere (new to me a week or so ago) is a 2010 with 32k miles on and a good service history.

The other day, i noticed that in gears 1 and 2 a grinding/rattle appears at 5k rpm and then goes at 5200rpm. It also does the same when in neutral/clutch in and i just rev to 5k rpm. Then, again, stops at 5200rpm.

Anyone have ideas about the cause? I've checked exhaust heat shield screws and the other usual suspects - but all sufficiently tight!

I can provide a video if required.

Thanks in advance.
