i have a post where this is discussed, because i did, and still do occasionally have that clunk, and i have a theory that i havent been able to look into yet.
when i did my front brakes, as i put things back together, i noticed some markings on the caliper bolts, and when i looked it up in the manual, of course, i had them in the wrong places. it seemed to me that there was a diameter, or some flat spots....there was something different about the two bolts, even though they fit and tightened down ok.
SO, my theory is this....that at some point, maybe the rear brakes (where i hear my clunk) were worked on, and the bolts were put in the wrong place.
this may be causing just enough friction on the wrongly placed bolts to not let the caliper release until the wheel starts to roll again.
in my thread, it was described perfectly as "unsprung energy"
just a thought, and just another thing i want to tear into to try and figure out my clunk. its been probably 2 years, but i will get around to it......

or type in the search "sticking brakes" in case i didnt do the link above correctly
the same discussion of drivetrane lubrication came into play on that thread too.
