FJ1200 Grinding sensation from gearbox thru foot pegs on overrun only

Evening Chaps, 

 

Sorry I haven't been on the forum much.

Still happily commuting on the 93 FJ-1200.  Only used the car 4 times all winter.  It has been a bit soggy at times and nippy but the heated grips are wonderful.

 

Last few weeks I get a grinding sensation through my foot pegs only on the overrun and slow filtering through traffic.  When I pull the clutch in it goes.

The bike accelerates good, pulls like a train and goes through the gears well.  

It feels like a few cogs or chain do not quite agree with each other on the left hand side in the gear box.

 

I changed lube oil last weekend and checked old oil but no bits (which is a bit of a relief)

 

Any Ideas ?

First option, check your chain is nice & clean & lubed. This one has confused me before now lol.
