So i'm honestly not sure if this noise is new or maybe I just haven't noticed it before. Cam chain tensioner/valves done correctly about 500 miles ago nothing on the bike has changed. It isn't a distinct metal knocking nor a carb chirp but its something in between the two. I can only hear it when I am giving it throttle @30-55mph/2000-4000rpm and when I let off it seems to go away. It is very faint which leads me to believe its part of the noisy valve train and i'm just going insane thinking my old bike is gonna break down. If anything I think it might be a squeaky exhaust gasket or my noticeably cracked RH intake boot rubber. I'd post a video but don't have the means to record while I am riding, as the noise disappears when the bike is sitting.
