Buddy, if the noise is limited to the clutch, then it really should be no problem. Does the rattly noise change significantly when you pull in the clutch lever? Does it go altogether when you engage gear and let the clutch out? If so, it is most likely the clutch may need cleaning or adjusting. As for the lame starting, this is quite likely a separate issue...may be a warranty call if you cannot identify or solve it .
Search this Forum for "dry clutch" and you'll find loads of advice.
