I'd do the valve adjust 1st, not knowing if you had the 1st service, I'd say it's time.
Key thing to remember, you shouldn't have to adjust it much and most likely if it's ticking it's loose.
Yes i started noticing the ticking with helmet on but it has been warm here. I've noticed it lately, but its been in the 90s which is kinda warm for us this time of year.
I was told that the spark plug, oil, & front brakes had been done before. From reading this site, I changed the oil anyway, because it had been sitting for the winter and who knows what oil they used(please no oil debates, lol).
Speaking of oil, I've developed the speedo cable leak. Is it possible to be leaking up top of the cable or is fixing the bottom of it solve the leak?
Oh and I've added the (mini) crash bars too(the stealership wanted to charge me $85 to put them on). This state is bad for hit and runs. My last car twice within 30 days, 2 different locations.
