[QUOTE="Jmunk, post: 185945, member: 9669"] Thanks for the information. The noise is temperature dependent and increases with RPM. I’d say it’s a ticking noise, sounds like a valve with too much clearance. When riding the bike it was loud enough for me to hear and bother me. I drained the oil and it looked good. I’m questioning if the rocker arm lost material allowing the clearance or if the material is gone from the head ? I’ll check the cam shortly for play. When I had the head off the cam journals looked good and weren’t scored. With a screwdriver to the ear the noise was the loudest on the spark plug side by the side plate. [/QUOTE]
