Thanks! My bike is not making the sound as loud as the bike in the video does, and I only hear it when the bike is running quietly. Does anyone believe this ticking sound is going to hurt the engine? Mine is so quite, I am not sure if I should be worried about it right now.

The ticking sound in my bike comes and goes. I can only hear it when the engine is idling, as it stops when the RPMs are increased. Sometimes it is louder than other times. I thought it was the fuel injectors clicking. The next time I hear the clicking I'll use the old screwdriver to the ear trick to see if I can better locate it. I performed the screwdriver test and inspected the area near the counter balancer adjuster, and determined the sound was not coming from that area. I did inspect at the fuel injectors and thought the sound was coming from that area, but now I want to inspect the area at the reed valves to be certain. I love the way the members of this forum all join in to help each other to resolve our little issues!
