So now that its warmed up to a balmy 50 here in Michigan, Iv'e gotten the bike out and running on a couple of short drives, (5,10, 20 miles). I've noticed a new noise and I wanted to see what you guys thought.
So background on bike, 2012, 4.4k miles, good chain tensioner (checked last fall). Only work I did over the winter was to wrap the muffler and put in a led headlight bulb.
So to the noise, Its like a metal ticking sound, I notice it at slower speeds (20-45) and ONLY when I'm giving the bike a bit of gas (to keep speed/ avoid stall) AND when the clutch is not pulled in. It disappears if I gun the engine on a quick acceleration. I cant pinpoint which side its coming from (since Im driving when I hear it). It seems to be coming from the Engine itself (I tried holding the headlight and speedometer in case those were loose.
