Are you able to restart it immediately or very shortly after it stops?

My guess is the reason for stopping and the clank are unrelated. The stopping is probably fuel or possibly ignition related.

The clank is probably cam chain tensioner / guide related. It is almost certainly a case of strip, examine parts and replace as necessary.

That noise is definitely the decompressor, the 250 and 450 honda do it aswell so don't worry about it. If you lift the cam cover off and look at the decompressor mechanism on the end of the cam and rotate the engine slowly by hand you'll see how it works and why it makes the noise you hear.

To change the cam chain tensioner is easy, if you need to that is. Remove the cam cover and make sure the chain doesn't move on the sprocket when you remove the tensioner, just simply put the new one in place in a reverse procedure.

They really are quite a bullet proof little engine if kept maintained correctly.
