Quill, don't worry about the clattering lifters, that is very common if the engine is left sitting. My old '91 would do it if left for only a couple of days. The oil drains out of the hydraulic lifters and takes a while to refil. There is no damage done if you do not go over 3k rpm until it all quietens down again (this usualy happens within about 20 mins).
btw I'm also a mad keen cyclist with plenty of car meets bike scars (though not for a few years - touch wood)
