Mine rattles pretty good on a cold morning, but it quiets down after a few minutes...on a hot day, it's pretty quiet from the start...90,000 miles on mine, as of Monday morning.

Aaaaand Troll saves the day.

Just to be on the safe side, the click increased with rpm, right?

I also found answers to a few other noise questions ;)

I'm not sure what's going on there, but that is a rather loud tick!  Maybe Troll or one of the others will know what's up?

So I've got this problem lately. Happens when I start the bike after a longer break (say 2 weeks), hear the clicking. Ride for up to 10 minutes and the clicking goes away. Next day is rather clickless. Clicking coincides with rpm's

Any reasons why this could be happening? Something needs changing?

Bike '99 Drifter, 10 000 km, all fluids changed 3000 km ago. Didn't seem to have this (clicking) problem last season and only noticed it this last month.
