Default Curvy - Rattle at 4000 revs

Hey folks - I've noticed a pronounced rattle coming from the front area of the bike at around 4k revs - normal?

It 'could' be the front pot, could be something in/around the fairing headstock, but I can't be certain.

Doesn't seem to happen at any other spot in the rev range

Sounds like a loose nut or something but I've done some poking and can't find anything.
