tick tick tick ....
Is the sound coming from the front of my bike ... and as there is no alarm clock fitted to it I dont think it is supposed to make that sound ...I was just wondering if people had any suggestions as to what it could be.
Doesnt make it when stationary only when moving sound is coming more from the left side of the bike when I am sat on it and the ticking gets more insistent the faster I go (ie I cant just rev it like a maniac and go lalalala and it goes away!!) have had problems with cam tensioner in the past and this is a different noise.. prizes may be awarded for your suggestions and especially if they are suggestions that will mean that it is not going to be expensive to fix. |

Something stuck in your tyre. Or it might be your speedo sensor.

.... someone throwing tic tac sweets at your lid......
Oh my coat arrived.. More likely to be a stone in the tyre or a chain that needs adjusting and a spot of lube as has been stated above. As a matter of interest, does it go away when you pull in the clutch? |

I'd go with chain adjustment and lube as well.

I'm going with a stone in the tyre (hopefully not a nail) or your brake pad is touching your disk..... only saying this as you say the ticking is speed realated and not there when your not moving..
