RE: long post bike problem
The stator is what jumped out at me right away, since it wont seem to charge. I would probably pop the cover and see if something came apart inside, if it was done that shortly ago the gasket should be fine to re-use so probably no worries there. The one other thing you could do, take a 12 inch or so extension, start the bike, place one end to the cover, the other end put you hand over then put it to your ear and see if the clunking seems to be coming from there. Of course if there are parts loose in the engine every time you start it you are running a risk. Personally i would just pop the stator cover and take a look, then you can proceed from there if all looks ok inside.
