Got all done with winter mods and took her out for a ride and tick tick. It ticks louder as i rev. There is a certain rpm where i dont hear it around 4K and sometimes in the upper band i can hear it. I think this happend after changing oil. The other only thing i can thing of is the exhaust. I put a full exhaust on but i did not feel anything comming out of the head. Any suggestions.

Are all exhaust bolts tight? Had the same problem with a tick or tap sound on a full exhaust the bolts were not tight enough.
 
i think im going to go back over the bike and prolly pull the exhaust off and start it up. i think that would tell me if its the exhaust or not.
 
That would be the alarm system...as the rpms rev to a certain point, the bike will disintegrate! Similar to the 007 Aston Martin Vantage system. :laugh:
 
be careful about doing multiple things to your vehicle before starting it and driving it, you will only make it harder to find out what the cause of a problem is if it acts up.
