Default Is my clutch loose?

Hi guys. Recently bought my 1st IL4 (R6 2009) and ive noticed the clutch sounds loose! Clutch lever has quite alot of free play and when I wiggle it back and forth I can hear what sounds liked a loose clutch plate Is this normal on IL4?

cant happen the way you mention it, as per normal the clutch pack is always under compression, if you hear a rattle all the time then you could have a broken spring but first things first, look in manual or haynes on how to adjust the free play in your clutch then go from there
