It's weird that the sound reduces when the clutch is pulled in..makes me think that's where the rattle is coming from and the sound is just transmitting up. Is your beloved burning much oil or smoking? Have you done a compression test? Some guys here have a lot more kms than yours so hopefully it's nothing that you'll have to sell any body parts for...rather than selling a kidney, try repeated donations to a sperm bank 
...might take a bit longer to raise the cash, but gotta be more fun .
I hope your motor's ok mate.

or a clutch basket.... unless you are prepared to do partial maintenance repairs now and risk having to do more things a little latter ... rather than all of her at once ...but BTW ...mine at just over the 100,000klms is rattly as chit when at idle mostly, makes no audible noises that I can hear when winding her up on the road ... and she goes like chit outta a shanghai still while using little to no oil ... so I just ignore the little rattles ATM ...
