I've noticed some sort of knocking when holding in my clutch coming down from 50mph and up but not at idle or slow speeds any ideas

Maybe coming from the chain?
How is your chain slack?
Also; do you normally coast from such high speed with the clutch in?

It's just an abnormal riding technique. Can't tell you the last time I was coasting at 50 clutch in. If I'm slowing from 50 I'm down shifting, on the brakes or engine braking.. nothing wrong with it. Just an unusual situation to be in.
For all I know I have your same problem
Could be Shain slop wacking the swing arm. That would be my guess..Don't spend money and buy, spend time and learn.Comment

The spec is too tight. If you're adjusting to the manual using the factory tool then adjust it to the loose line.

Loosened the chain and just received my chain slider from hord hopefully I have no issues but I've also avoided holding in my clutch to long and haven't had much noise but if I have any issues with wearing out the slider quickly I'm gonna invest in the chain rollerComment

That is what I was leaning towards as well. Make sure it's the one on the underside that attaches to the kickstand bracket, and not the one on the swingarm if you are inspecting and changing out. A lot of folks never realize there is one in there. I think you can still get the OEM replacement piece from Hord or whoever your go-to Honda supplier is. The part # is 52181-MN8-003 If that is what you got already.
