So I readjusted my cam chain (with a cold engine, I know need a warm engine adjustment but I had to get it running before I can let the engine warm up) did a complete valve adjustment ( double checked everything) started up my bike and there is a strange engine noise, its lke a loud tick. I assumed it was coming from my valves but I put my ear the valves intake and exhaust on both sides while turning the motor over via kick start and it doesnt seem to be coming from there, here is a link with the sound im talking about, anyone have any idea what this could be?

:wtf:
 
this is just a thought cam chain guide rubber may be worn out or ,it rubber came loose a slide down like mine did
it sounded like that
it sounded like this running

sounded like this after i fixed it
 
awww man that is the exact sound mine is making. So how did you fix it? You have to unmount the motor and take top end off?
