[QUOTE="AZrider, post: 299155, member: 4757"] Harald, I have a 2007 and noticed a lot of things when I first started riding it. Your bike is fine. The "ticking" you hear could be a myraid of things from fuel injection to valves to cumquats when you first start the bike up. The tolerances on most engines are calculated at "running" temperature and so engines can create a cacaphony (that's a lot of different noises for those of you in Milpitas, CA) sounds when they first start up. You will also notice some tranny whine soon when the weather gets cooler. If you look around you'll probably have put the windscreen up which eliminates a lot of wind noise and so now you will notice those sounds. [U]I have 7000 wonderful miles on my FJR and outside of the dreaded altitude surge I've had ZERO problems with the bike.[/U] Just take it out and ride it and enjoy a great piece of engineering.
