Ticking Noise Around Alternator

Video is below, the wind noise makes it hard to hear so you have to listen closely. Ticking noise only seems to happen at 20-25mph +. Just got the bike last week and haven’t got out of the neighborhood yet so I’m not sure if it worsens over 30-35mph. Any ideas? Concerning or am I over thinking it? It’s on the left side around the engine/alternator area. 2005 Shadow Aero 750.

Thanks

Worth it?

Looking to get my first bike soon, I’m not familiar with the market or pricing on any of these bikes. Found a 2005 Shadow 750 listed yesterday for $3,250 USD. Has super low miles, around 1100. Is that a red flag? Only thing wrong is the Speedo glass is cracked. Could that create a bigger problem with moisture or dust making its way in there? Pictures attached. Thanks
