america stuck in 5th gear

hi

yesterday my america stucked on 5th gear - cant move lever down at all, but clutch was worked fine. i pull out bike on walk patch, and after shut down engine, gears start working. i have noticed that nut on pipe with conect gear shift lever with engine was loose. i have fixed it, and then i rided 100 miles with no problem. Question - should i concern about that situation? or is possible that nut was a problem and i nothing serious?



before i have been posted about knocking noise from clutch. peoples from 3 different garages have listen this noise and all said noise is normal. But this noise is a lot lounder now ,lounder than idle engine running, usualy on warm and hot engine , when clutch is pull in. i dont have problem with clutch other than this noise (for example i done 1200 km in 2 days and then after week another 1200km in 2days with this noise without problems at all) . more miles = noiser bike?


thanks in advice for replys.
