Clutch gone

Hi,
So on a straight line is was doing about 70-80km/h, suddenly the clutch is gone (i did not try to shift).
Now it rlly has a bad noise (sounds like metal parts moving around)in the engine when even pushing the bike, it looks like its coming from the clutch.

Someone had this before? I think its the clutch or are the gears also possible? I never had problems changing gear.
Bike is a xt660x 2005 with 13000km.

That's bad luck. Hopefully it hasn't done too much damage to the engine cases and swingarm and you'll just be able to get away with a new chain and sprockets.

My XTR tossed the chain doing a river crossing..
Think a large rock pushed the chain side ways so it
could de-rail from the rear sprocket...
Thats all I can put it down to... chain was still tight once
I put it back on....
just put a few scuffs on the rear hub...
now the hub matches the rest of the bike...

They really should have a chain guide just in front
of the sprocket...
