Well i am debating weathere or no to get the valve adjusted.I went to the dealership i got the bike from and they said it fine but......is this fine because they hoping something else will break,they dont want to do the job or its fine.It sounds like there a clicking nosie that i never heard b 4 after i let off the throttle,i ve search and it seem like there alot of us with this noise is it normal.Ijust wanted to send it in for tires and check b 4 winter not now maybe in a month

What's your current mileage?
Would you also mind re-recording the video with some source of light. It's kinda hard to distinguish where on the engine we are listening to.

Ummm...wow. Probably time to get those valves done. The chain tensioner may be making some noise too and that will be removed during the valve adjustment. Best time to clean and lube it as well.

PLEASE get your valves done!
Did mine this weekend. In spec is for the exhaust side is .22mm - .29mm (I know .22 is right just cant remember the highest) And one of mine was at .03mm. Another idk 500-1000 miles and my bike would have seized up, probably in that canyon..... :(
