One thing I want to try is braking, it seems to stop when braking, or very very shortly after, maybe due to weight shift. oy.
Not to throw stones, but if you want a proper diagnosis from anyone, you'll need to give us some form of audio. You've done well enough to describe it. Frankly, it DOES sound like clutch from your description, but it could still be other things. Shucks, frokm some of what you say it could just as easily be a bad bearing!

Can you upload an audio of this noise you're hearing? A digital recorder is cheap at wally world, and most can plug into a mic jack.
