I might be a little hard of hearing, but I didn't hear anything out of place
But I do have a question for you, did you swap the bars/grips/controls? If so, how tall are they and where did you get your cables?

Could be a few things
...could be the cam chain
...could be a real bad valve adjustment
and a few more.
check on the other side, feel by the top left oil filter cover on the clutch cover... feel a tappin'? That's a gremlin tryin' to get out, you better stop and let him out.
If you don't feel it then adjust your valves.
and I'd check to see if you got a header leak too.

yes
so adjust your valves and hope it goes away
you're pretty early for a cam chain.
