Default Same issue here.

Turbacide, I heard the noise you're referring to. I have the exact same damn issue amd it's driving me crazy!! It's got substantially worse in the past couple months. Here's my setup whoch is simmilar to yours:​
2009 streetglide
S&S 106" kit
ideS&S 585 cams (chain)
darkhorse compensator
Professionally tuned on dyno
oh yea, also have rockerlockers installed.

Same sounds emitted only on acceleration at about 3000 rpm. I'm fixing to tear apart my motor again.

Checked the pistons, they're clean, no Nick's from valve Contact (thank God). Its not from the primary.

Did y’all ever find out what the noise was? I’m having a similar noise at the same rpm range as well

I had a higher pitched rattle in my '14 that was driving me nuts from 2000 to about 3500 RPMS. I had a rocker cover leak and installed Rockout sleeves while I was in there doing the gaskets - Presto - noise gone. I can't believe that tiny amount of rocker shaft slap on the bolts was making that much racket.
