clicking ? (nocking?)

Hello everyone im not only new to this site but as a road bike owner as well. I hope I can get some help.

I bought a 06 yamh 1100 silverad. Daily runner, but im starting to notice a few problems. After running for over a 30min (good and warm) I will hear a soft clicking or possible nocking from what sounds like the front piston. It it only noticeable when slowing down or stopped idling. I´m just hoping and praying its not internal or severe problem.
also when warm shifting is snappy and clunky even when I use clutch and rpm to try and minimize this.
60 + mph feels like im about maxed its hard to get it up to 75mph idk it doesn´t seem right.

I know this was a lot for my first post but I hoping I can get some advice or ideas, thank you and smooth ridding!
