G16 clunks on takeoff

[aussieruss]

Has been doing this for ages now, usually when its first runs before it warms up. When i press the gas pedal, it will clunk a few times as its rolling to take off. Once the wheels are engaged, no problems. Also once its warmed up a bit it doesnt seem to do it. No noises, no grinding sounds, just clunk clunk clunk for say 6 feet. it does this forward or reverse. ideas??

Sounds like maybe the drive clutch, I would take the dust cover off and check everything out.

Motor mount bolts or the rubber cushins? Maybe the 2 small bolts that hold the swing arm cushin to the main frame?
