Engine noise
Need a little understanding here. Listen to this audio and you should notice the tapping sound starting from 9-10 sec. Not ticking sound I suppose.
Starts around 3k RPM, goes on with same interval and probably somewhat same loudness regardless of higher RPM. And goes silent again below 3k.
It started coming after hitting 12k RPM after I rode my bike after a whole year while it was parked.
Although I did keep it idle for 20-30 mins, chaexked oil level. Rode for 5-6 kms below 6k rpm before I took it for a 13k spin!
Chatgpt is convinced by my description that it is cam-chain tensioner or cam lobes or just an extremely bad valve clearance!
