Default Tapping feeling through foot pegs?

Hi,

I have a ZX6 and when the clutch is pulled in above 40mpg I feel a distinct tapping through my foot pegs, any ideas?

I had serviced last sat and only done about 200 moles since, so should be ok as chain was adjusted and sprockets are not old less than 1 yr with only a few thou miles on

ZX6 are known to have the odd problem with the clutch thrust bearing

I've got a horrible jumping/rubbing noise coming from my chain/sprockets after I did a rushed adjustment this morning, might be the same thing - tight link?
