I will check all the suggestions mentioned in this thread and hopefully nail the noise culprit.

So I'm kinda nearing the break in period on my bike (+/- 600 mi) now and brought it up to about 9k for the 1st time today and heard the same metallic sound right around 9k. Does anyone know if this is normal?
