Does your bike do this all the time, even after warming up? Hope you figure it out.I went back and listened to the video again, and I was mistaken. The sound my bike makes is similar, but not identical. Also, my bike sometimes (not always) makes a similar sound on start-up, that quickly goes away. I read on another post, on this forum somewhere, that the fuel injectors make a clicking noise, and I think that is what is causing the noise on my bike. I listened closely next to the fuel injectors one time and it did sound like the sound could have been coming from that area. The sound on your bike does seem to be coming from the RH side, front of the crankcase, but maybe you can try listening closely to the fuel injectors and try to determine if the sound is coming from there? Just trying to help to eliminate as many possibilities as possible. Good luck.
