So I have this rattle noise in the front of my engine. It increases as I rev the bike, it doesn't disappear when i'm up to speed its just that I can't hear it. Its very noticeable at idle. I searched the threads and from what I found the cam chain guide is worn. I took it a trusted shop (because I don't have the time myself) and asked them to check the cam chain tightness, the tensioner and the cam chain guide. They opened up the engine and said everything looks good and the master yamaha tech there told me he has never heard that noise before. Any ideas?
-I also checked my recent oil change for bits of aluminum/plastic from the cam chain guide and there were none
Heres a video of the noise
