if it's just when you lug it or at low revs, it's pretty normal. you can adjust the preload on the actuator arm to get rid of it..

I had that problem on my i25 but it ended up being the bolt on the main drive gear on the end of the crank. Let's just say not a good ending.

you should at least open right side power valve cover (remove exhaust) and take a look. it should slap shut when you close the throttle, mine make no noise when i come off throttle...mostly they're noisy kinda chattering chain slap type sound when you lug/are in the wrong gear.
