hi peoples im in australia and iv got a 09 sv650s with 7500km and about 2500km i noticed a ticking sound in line with engine rev its like a metalic sound a spark lead arcing sound maybe a cct but in the last 1500km i can hear it alot more when warm but the ticking is not there when engine is cold its there maybe after riding for about 15 20min what could it be? sounds like its comin from the top of engine or throttle bodys and the middle of front cylinder who knows its driving me crazy not knowing
took it to the dealer and they only used a stethoscope to assess it and they said it was a noisy injector ![]() |

Does sound like the injector area, because its done low miles I would wait and see if it settles down, I had this on a car implant I did one time, it settled down after a few long run's. If it starts causing performance issues I would get it back there asap.

My bike does the same. It's a noisy injector on mine (2008 R1). Apparently it is quite common on those. Doesn't cause any issues and I can only hear it when I start the bike up and I haven't got a helmet on. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
