Unfortunately, I came to the conclusion that it isn't sprocket to shaft slop, but that the shaft moves in and out of the transmission.

squawk from front sprocket or clutch starting in first

I periodically have a squawk/chatter sound when I begin to let the clutch out from a stop. I immediately pull the clutch again, and start more gently. This has happened maybe 4 times in the first 20 miles on the bike. It's new.

I thought it was the clutch and the cheap oil it came with, but it happened a couple of times after I changed to good T4 oil. Anybody else have this happen??

It's funny you mention this now. I put t4 synthetic in mine a couple weeks ago and while I was out riding yesterday mine would squeal too. This didn't bother me as I've had the same experience on my ktm powered quad. Whenever I put the synthetic rotella in it squeals. I've never noticed any abnormal wear on the quad so I'm not worrying about the tbr7.
