Ticking starts at the beginning then subsides. It dies after I apply throttle. Bike was just started no choke.
First.. maybe check the oil level and I also noticed this not long ago and from what I gathered, it seems to be a common thing with this bike. Cam Chain tensioner is bit loose or something and needs bit of oil to be lubed when you first start the bike.

I don't think this is considered an issue.. but perhaps more experienced member can chime in on the topic.
