Default p700 transmission noise

I have an 05 p700 with about 120 miles on it. When Im in low gear in rough terrain it makes a fairly loud clanging noise from the transmission. It seems to only do it along with the engine braking, (when not on throttle) and only when you go over bumps such as rocks or roots. It doesnt effect the drive or performance it just makes a fairly loud clanging noise ( like slack in the drive line). Does anybody know what might be doing this and is it normal??

Default p700 transmission noise

mine does it also.
when i first got mine i took it back and said there was somthing wrong with it but the macanic said it was just a noisy drivetrain.
so i said what happens if it brakes and i was told all 700s make that noise and not to worry about it.
at first it drove me nuts thinking somthing was wrong but now im used to it and if it does brake its still under warrenty.
its somthing my honda dont make and i dont like the sound but as long as its ok i guess i can live with it.
