All bikes rattle at idle in neutral and get better with the clutch pulled in to some degree. I personally think it is the gears in the box rattling around with no load on them and when you pull the clutch you are disconnecting the drive to the main shaft.
Or it is the clutch pack rattling against the basket and gets better when the plates are separated with oil dampening the vibes.
But you can get the clutch basket out easily through the small clutch cover on gassys so it is easy to inspect those dampening runners in the back of the basket. They might have gone hard with age.
