This may be a symptom off a dragging clutch, or something else???

My Honda does it and all my previous bikes have clunked the 1st gear, even my vintage. However when I changed the sprockets and chain of my Triple Thunderbird it immediately stopped, now it's a very pleasant click, I'm not sure it's because of the tighter drive or chain tension or more than likely just a coincidence. I'm still using the same Triumph recommended brand engine oil. Certainly low engine revs reduces it in my Honda.
