Unhappy 06 Z400 Odd Engine Noise

When I rev the motor on the higher half of the engine rev it sound like something is rubbing or loose, As per previous thread i thought it may be the Cam chain but now am not so sure maybe something in the clutch? The motor runs fine but just makes an add high pitched grinding sound almost. I kinda sure its coming from right side of the engine. Please HELP! any ideas? its like to fix before whatever is breaks and potentially causes damage.

still sounds like it could be the chain, but sometimes the only way to find out it tear it apart and hope you find something

Does the sound change at all when you pull in the clutch?

sry for delayed response, no the clutch does not affect the sounds, I checked the oil in the event that if I saw metal particles I could confirm it was the chain slapping somethin aka the metal on metal that would occur.... and nothing. i really dont know what it is I ready just to say **** ride it hard till something breaks then ill know what it is.
