The "cush drive" in the rear wheel is supposed to dampen noise and shock to the drive line. They can and do get loose and cause problems like you are experiencing.

Working on a 2000 800 Drifter that had little maintanence done in its life. It has a clunk in the final drive. Not rythmic , more interrmittent. 26,000 miles, chain has tight spots ,so I'm starting with chain and sprocket replacement. But it will clunk when your rolling  at 10 mph and crack the throttle. Can someone explain the role of the dampners in the rear hub. Can they make noise ? thanks.
