Hello, my FJR started to give a strange sound from the engine. I'm adding a video link.



FJR is a 2010 year, 39,000km, a new timing chain, a new chain tensioner, valve clearance OK.

Thank you

 
I have an 04 with 88000 miles and a ticker. But after doing a valve adjustment and loosing up the valve clearance a bit actually quieted it down noticeably. I also switched to Rotella Synthetic and that again helped a little more. You can still hear it, but at least people next to me at a stop light don't stare anymore thinking my bike is coming apart:)
