Clackity noise
I have a 2016 48 with stage 1 kit from DK Customs 15000 miles on the the bike. Recently I can hear a distinctive “Clackity” noise from the rear cylinder at the top of the cylinder head. I narrowed it down to the rear cylinder valve cover by listening with a long handled screwdriver. You can actually hear the noise on a deceleration of the throttle just standing next to the bike. Any thoughts ? It’s basically a new bike. Thanks.

It’s upon startup now. Before I never noticed it, I just remembered on a ride as I was comming down the road to my house I noticed the noise last fall. It’s a pretty audible noise just with the bike idling. The bike seems to run fine but ide like to fix it before it gets too bad.

it’s definitely there after motor is warm/hot because I first heard it at the end of a ride coming down my street, and it was a very distinctive noise that I could hear thru my full face helmet. The motors only got 15000 miles on it what would make a spring break like that ? Soon as I get time I’ll pop the cover off.
