engine noises
..... yes I did
Anyways heres what I got and I learned alot from the search but I didn't quite get a answer that I thought fitted mine. But maybe I'm just paranoid and wanted some extra comfort.
I cant pinpoint its exact location but it sounds like a half tick half poof. Somewhat like a exhaust leak but not quite. its most prominent around 2500-4000 rpm after that I either don't hear it or it goes away. does it if its idle or in gear. I have heard some valve noise is usual and so is slide slap also something about airbox noise? I have a k&n air filter. I don't think its valves so much as its not a metal on metal sound really and its only really heard in that rpm range usually when I'm around 1/4 throttle. changes slightly with rpm but doesn't sound like a match. Any help? ill try to get an audio if it helps.

I still couldn't find a way to get a decent audio on here so I searched youtube till I found a bike that sounds like mine. http://youtube.com/watch?v=XBjmyJxLYmk&feature=related in the background you can hear a slight ticking noise sounds just like my bike. after hearing about 15+ hawks on their it sounds either different from the rest or he just had a better pickup on his camera. anyways thanks!
